This is real Multiculturism
*** Sudanese and Darfurians joined in their call to stop all deportations ***
The demonstration today ( 4th April 2007) outside the Dallas Court Reporting Centre in Salford Quays was unique in the sense that several other nationalities were there to show their solidarity with Sudanese people seeking asylum in the UK and instructed to report to the Home Office authorities day. Darfur is not safe and neither is Khartoum – that is why people are seeking protection in the UK.
Afghan, Zimbabwean, Congolese, Pakistani, Iranian, Sudanese and representatives from other parts of the world crossing Asia, Africa and Europe were present on the demonstration to hear speakers and chant together: Deportations must be stopped…Seeking asylum is not a crime. No deportations to Darfur, other parts of Sudan, and other countries
The country representatives called upon as many people as possible people to join the demonstration on 12th April at 12 noon from All Saints on Oxford Road in Manchester, passed the BBC studios and on to the Peace Gardens for a Rally against all deportations and then a static protest outside the Immigration Appeals Tribunals Court at Piccadilly Gardens (beside Mount Street Metro stop).
