In the last few weeks there has been an increasingly brutal repression
of migrants in Calais and the surrounding areas.

On Wednesday 22nd October police and 250 armed riot squad officers
smashed a camp that was home to 350 Eritreans. There were hundreds of
arrests and around 80 of the migrants were imprisoned in a detention
centre.

Then on Thursday 6th November police conducted a manhunt of Afghans in
the area. Journalists and activists on the scene were encircled by
police for a number of hours to prevent them from documenting what was
happening, and intervening. During a solidarity demo the following
evening a prominent local activist was arrested.

We understand that the arrest of Afghans is in preparation for a
charter flight to Kabul in the next few weeks that is being organised
jointly by the French and British authorities.

In response to these outrages, London No Borders is calling for a
solidarity demo at the French Tourist Board this Friday, 14th November,
from 1pm-2pm. No detention! No deportations! End all immigration
controls!

Address: Lincoln House, 300 High Holborn, WC1V 7JH. Please bring
banners and noise making things!
