Oct7 Migrants March: London's Demo Photos

Over 500 people marched in London today as part of the Transnational Day of Action Against Migration Controls. The march was loud, colourful and had a festive atmosphere. But probably, one of the most positive aspects of the demonstration, was the diversity of people and groups that came together to defend the rights of migrant people, for the freedom of movement, against deportations and border controls ... maybe this march signalled the starting point of a new movement here in the UK.

Below there's a selection of pics that aims o show this diversity Read more >>

NO DEPORTATIONS TO IRAQ! LEAVE TO REMAIN NOW!

PICKET OF THE HOME OFFICE - TUESDAY 5 SEPTEMBER, 12-2 PM

Called by COALITION TO STOP DEPORTATIONS TO IRAQ and INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF IRAQI REFUGEES

Show your opposition to Blair and Reid’s policy of deporting vulnerable people to dangerous countries! Support the efforts to stop forced removals to Iraq!

The Home Office has detained many Iraqi Kurds, perhaps 60, and some have been told they will be removed on 5 September. We believe there are also some Arab Iraqis in detention. All over Britain Iraqis are living in fear of a dawn raid on their home, or of arrest at their place of work or when they go to report at the Home Office signing centre.
