Meltem, 14, and her mother, deportation Thursday
13-11-2007 12:32
Meltem Avcil and her mother Cennet, who have been held in Yarl'sWood detention centre for almost three months, are facing removal to
Germany on 07.30 Hrs, Thursday 15 November. Meltem is just 14, and has
been living in this country for six years. We visited her last week and
saw how depressed and scared she was. Her mother and father were
persecuted in Turkey for being Kurds, and she and her mother are in a
terrible state at the prospect of being deported to Germany from where they
fear they will be sent on to Turkey.
Urgent : Maud Lennard, Zimbawean woman on hunger-strike, removal tonight

Northern Assurance super-glued shut as protest against Brook House
02-11-2007 10:13
The locks of the Northern Assurance Building were super-glued shut in the early hours of Friday, 2 November. This was an act of sabotage against FD Tamesis, housed in this building, intended to highlight the company's involvement in the construction of what will be the UK's largest immigrant deportation centre, Brook House near Gatwick Airport. 2 November is a national day of action against Brook House, called by the No Borders network: across the country, companies with a hand in this new deportation centre will be targeted, pressuring them to end their involvement.Afterthoughts on the No Border camp in Ukraine (August 2007)

A letter from Meltem Avcil, aged 14 behind the Wire at Yarl's Wood
11-10-2007 16:29
In August 2007 the immigration came for us again in the morning at 7 o'clock. My friends were sleeping in our house. As soon as my mom opened door they rushed in. They do that to all families but can't they think why do they have to come in the morning? Sometimes they awake small babies from their hot bed! Even sometimes they get teenagers to think y future is down. They said to us to be quick, they were shouting in our ears. One time they lead my friends away with out her saying bye to me! How do they feel that I'm never going to see her again?XL airways refuse to carry deportees - Home Office Panic!
08-10-2007 17:06
XL Airways ;"... we operated one flight in February to DR Congo as part of this
contract, without full understanding of the political dimensions
involved. Our chief executive [Phillip Wyatt] had made it quite clear
to all concerned that we will not be operating any further flights of
this nature ... We are not neutral on the issue and have sympathy for
all dispossessed persons in the world, hence our stance."
On dawn raids (and what happens after)
07-10-2007 20:41
Invariably, it is familes with children who are targeted as they are more likely to be found at home and detained all together.Baby Ashleen and her mother Juliet were taken in a dawn raid after their door was smashed. Nathan and Jeremiah, three and two years old, were detained with their parents during another dawn raid. Another young mother took an overdose on the eve of her planned deportation, wanting to die and was taken to hospital: her four years old daughter was left in the detention centre on her own.
