Return Beatrice to Liverpool

19-09-2007 22:32

Beatrice campaigning in Liverpool
Beatrice who was living in Liverpool was 'removed' to Cameroon on 28th August after being held in Yarls Wood detention camp for many weeks. Beatrice resisted being forced onto the plane but she has told us that she was very badly beaten and kicked by her two 'escorts'. Her condition was so bad that the Cameroonian authorities refused to acccept someone who was in such a bad state into their country and put her on a plane the same night on a flight back to the UK. She remains in Yarls Wood and has had her mobile taken from her and she is very unhappy with her legal representatives.

Leafleting at St Lukes at the top of Bold Street on Saturday 22nd September 1.30 - 2.30 for Beatrice and others, as sadly Beatrice's case is not exceptional, many others suffer from these racist immigration controls.

The contents of what took place have far reaching implications for local people’s rights and by logical extension for the democratic rights of all in society. What was witnessed in the behaviour of he controlling clique of Blaring time serving careerists should give pause for a thought even to those who are too eager to back any slogan that involves increasing the monetary and career gains of those bent on grabbing positions and opportunities as local councillors.
