NoBorder activists have a word with MP Meg Hillier

[London] | 23.04.2010 23:17 | London

This morning activists of London NoBorders signed up for MP Meg Hillier's twice monthly surgery at Hackney Town Hall. Meg Hillier is Member of Parliament for Hackney South and Shoreditch and Home Office Minister for Identity. With regard to the hunger strike in Yarl's Wood detention center, Hillier had written to every MP denying that the women are still on hunger strike: "Whilst there are a small number of detainees refusing formal meals from the canteen, they are buying food from the centre's shop and vending machines and having food delivered by visitors." 34 women wrote denying these lies and pointing out that visitors are banned from bringing in food.
