  • The majority of refugees have their right to stay in the UK permanently pending. Many suffer from this stressful situation where they see themselves as living in a limbo, unable to look for work and to move freely.  Often the bond between the community of refugees is strong supported by the need to keep some of their culture and costumes.

  • Widows of war in Kosovo.  After the war, some of villages like Meje have no men left.  Many widows have no means of sustainment.  Ngos assisted the widows in rebuilding their homes.  However, the Ngos support has diminuished to null after they have been moved to  Iraq and Afghanistan.  This decision has left the widows in unfinished homes and no one to turn to for any support.

  • The young people recognise that the way they dresses will influence their chances of being stopped, one young boy explained to me “wearing a ‘hoodie’ is a call for being stopped. People judge you for the way you dress. I have been stopped wearing these clothes.”

  • “It is usually when we are around in the estate the police stops for absolutely no reason. It is more because they think we get up to stuff because of the way we dress because we cover ourselves up with hoodies. Let's say if I was to dress with tracksuit and hoodie I would have more chance to stop than a business look clothes suit, tie and everything. It depends on the officer that stops you if they are in bad or good mood. I have been in some situation where that made a difference. Some of them they actually marked me just for being out in a group.. seven of us. They ask things like why are you out, just excuses for stopping. It is normal now. I don't know anybody that has not been stopped by the police.” S., June 2016

  • “We were stopped because we were wearing certain clothes, tracksuits and Nike and stuff. They annoy you. They are annoying.” May, 2016

  • “My friend started to wear the hijab. One day she went to the post office. At the counter the clerk serving her began speaking to her loudly and very slowly.. continuously asking her if she was understanding. My friend said there is not need to speak to me in this way. My friend was born and has lived in the UK for 30 years and ever since she has began wearing the hijab people has been treating her as if she doesn't know anything, does not speak the language.  In terms of terrorism, I am more wary of certain areas I am going to. I wouldn't feel very safe in areas of predominantly white working class like the Docklands for instance or certain areas in Hounslow. I wouldn't feel comfortable if it is late at night or I am on my own because  maybe it is just in my head but I hear of what is happening to muslim women being stripped of their scarves  off on the street, being shouted at, called names I just wouldn't feel same.  It happens frequently, I heard one lady was beaten up in Fulham and that's very west London and she was walking and a guy was very aggressive to her. She was wearing jilbab, the full cover, and he started to pull off her clothes and being shouting to go back to her country, effing terrorist, it is more like people are encouraged to come out and feel hatred towards others.” A., October 2016.

  • China is one of the largest producers of coal in the world, but it has also one of the worse recorded mining conditions claiming thousands of lives every year.  To make matters worse, illegal coal mining has increased over the years putting the coal miners' lives at greater risks.  Lan Ba Coal Mine on the Laoying Mountain is an example of one of the many illegal coal mines.  Safety measures are no-existing; broken rails, only one exit and entry point and no protective clothing or equipment to name a few.
