Anti-deportation protest at the Nigerian embassy in London
29-04-2009 15:50
A dozen anti-deportation campaigners held a small protest today outside the Nigerian embassy in central London to highlight the Nigerian government's role in the forcible mass deportation of Nigerian refugees. A joint deportation charter flight carrying more than 20 families, with children as young as one, is scheduled to leave London, from an undisclosed airport, to Lagos via Dublin at 6pm today.
The protest, organised by the Stop Deportation Network, lasted for about an hour, after which protesters walked down to Parliament Square to join the Tamil protest there. Having leafleted passers-by and people visting the embassy, they ended with some loud chants such as 'no more deportations' and 'No borders, no nations, stop deportations'.

If anyone receives any silly messages from someone called Hossam Eid on the Stop Camden Animal Lab Facebook page [a fake admin called Hossam Eid] please ignore them & report the hacker. This is the latest in the saga surrounding this campaign by people trying to disrupt it. In a way I'm flattered that people are going to so much trouble. Thank you Hossam for your attention.

29-04-2009 12:20
Not only the Western boycott of Durban II and the attitude on the Ahmadinejad speech lacks a fundamental respect for fundamental human rights, it is also hypocritical seeing in the light of her implicite support for the Israeli regime of occupation, letting get Israel away with human rights violations and war-crimesLegendary Ska@ the Navi Nottingham for Prisoner support, nr the Irish centre
