Baroness Hamwee: Should there be presumption against immigration detention?@ToufiqueHossain: I would welcome the Hardial Singh principles being put into statute. Hwvr it should be remembered that it is already the case that is unlawful to breach them as they exist in common law.

.@gardencourtlaw Stephanie Harrison QC: Parliament has to step up. This is not a situation that can be allowed to continue. What we are seeing here is institutional dehumanisation. #immigrationdetention @HarrietHarman

.@joannaccherry: Why do large proportion of detention related judicial reviews fail to reach the substantive hearing stage? @windmill_tilter:
In my experience the Home Office often decides to settle cases they don’t want to fight, especially those highlighting systemic problems pic.twitter.com/aBuxx60LHn

.@joannaccherry is it time for an independent review of legal aid in England and Wales, as indeed there has already been in Scotland? Stephanie Harrison QC: yes it is vital. Reductions in legal aid, loss of appeal rights and the use of detention are interrelated. @HarrietHarman pic.twitter.com/eys8j8tfCs

Baroness Prosser: are immigration bail conditions reasonable? @gardencourtlaw Stephanie Harrison QC: There is excessive use of tagging, beyond necessity or proportionality. It is a very significant restriction on liberty. #immigrationdetention

.@lauradubinsky: in answer to question of how to operate a time limit without normalisation of backstop - safeguards could include a statutory requirement that backstop is only used in exceptional circumstances and if there is evidence that it is necessary.

. @ToufiqueHossain gives examples of cases where Detention Gatekeepers fail to record on forms obvious indicators of vulnerability that should indicate against detention, including a potential victim of trafficking, picked up in a brothel. #immigrationdetention @HarrietHarman pic.twitter.com/7wCV4xzXap

.@KarenPBuckMP: why do so many fail to get legal help when legal aid is supposed to be available to immigration detainees? Stephanie Harrison QC: contracts for legal aid in detention now dispersed among 50 firms & no requirement for lawyers to have expertise in detention cases. pic.twitter.com/FOI3a33aXD
