Pictures from the SOAS occupation - 16th June

IMCista | 17.06.2009 00:20 | Education | Migration

The main SOAS building has been occupied by students and campaigners for the second day running over the detention and deportation of foreign cleaners and the management's sickening role in the orchestrated immigration raid on Friday, 12th June. Another rally was held today outside the building, followed by a march round the surrounding colleges. Here it is in pictures.
