absolutely miserable day... but still a damn sight better than Iraq at the moment which is being torn apart. a situation that our government (which ain't no poodle), bears a lot of responsibility for.
and so, in the pursuit of truth, justice and the american way, blunkett and cronies have decided to deport people through the enforced returns policy. After the fall of Saddam, Iraqi asylum seeker cases have met massive refusal at the appeal court and the Home Office. Their benefits have been stopped and they have also been deprived of accomodation, work permits and access to public services.
First we mess up their country and rip out its economic resources, then we send people back to the hell we co-created.
We should support Iraqi refugees faced with enforced deportation because it is all one fight in the end. The reasons why people suffer across the world are the same, at base, as the reasons why Marshalls/Stancliffe are foaming at the mouth to get into Nine Ladies.
Just follow the money.
