Refugee injured


A a Kurdish refugee has been seriously injured at the notorious Campsfield detention centre just outside Oxford.
It is believed that the man plunged to the ground during a roof-top protest attacking the horrendous conditions at the state sponsored, yet privately run concentration camp.
Through showing their bravery in the face of such harsh oppression at the hands of the racist scum that run the place, our brothers and sisters are placing themselves in dangerous positions and risk -as has been shown- serious injury.
Campsfield must be destroyed along with every detention centre, prison and pig station in the country.
No Borders.....No States!

Detaining refugees, who are not criminals or in danger of absconding, is a violation of the European Human Rights Convention.

Depriving innocent, vulnerable people of freedom is a denial of human rights, civil liberties and dignity. All European countries who detain asylum seekers in prison camps are breaking the law.

Our government is inhumane, it's been proved in court. It is our humanitarian obligation to assist refugees, it is illegal to punish and dehumanize them.

Release the prisoners now!

Protest Continues

A number of detainees at Campsfield have been on hunger strike since Saturday.
Also, last night many detainees peacefully protested by refusing to return to their 'rooms' for the night and instead slept in corridors or in the recreation yard.

The detainees are protesting to the Home Office, primarily about the arbitrary nature of their detention and the general refusal of bail by immigration adjudicators.

More details should soon be on the close campsfield website

Campsfield will be destroyed. We need planning nad equipment to destroy the gates and fences. We also need safe houses to hide the asylum seekers. The government and police have no right to fuck people's lives up. Fuck them! Against borders and the state.
