British xenophobe and racist policy against immigrants --Say NO to charges!
Abolish Visa Renewal Charges for International Students!
Abolish Visa Renewal Charges for all Immigrants in the UK!
According to a document of the British Home Office Department of State, Consultation
Review of charges for immigration applications, September 2004, the UK government displays an obscene xenophobe and racist proposal against all immigrants living already in the Uk or that plan to come to the UK. They pretend to increase a 958.3 % rate of the fees to all immigrants! If nationals process a Leave to remain in their home countries it will cost them £ 36 GBP, but with the new fee they will have to pay £ 345, that is, a 958.3 % top up rate increase of the fee in any British Embassy or Consulate abroad!

According to the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, the UK government spends £ 280 million a year to maintain the £12.5 billion Trident, the British nuclear power system of Mass Destruction Weapon with 4 nuclear submarines with more than 48 nuclear warheads 8 times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb. The UK government also spends each year more than £ 7 billion on Eurofighter jets of Mass Destruction Weapon. According to the BBC, the USA and UK altogether has spent $ 162 billion US dollars (£ 83 billion) on the first year of the war against the Iraqi innocent people (The cost of the Iraq war: One year on, 8 April, 2004).
That is, the British warmachine government spends billions of pounds in armament and wars killing millions of innocent people around the globe, and instead of cutting off the military budget, now wants to squeeze the international immigrants to carry on with their military plans. But according to The Guardian, a strong group of immigrants, international students, already contribute to the British economy --i.e. British people welfare-- with over £5 billion a year, and still it is one of the most affected groups of immigrants. (The Guardian 29 November 2004, http://education.guardian.co.uk/students/overseasstudents/story/0,12743,1362022,00.html). If these policies are not stopped, the UK may become a proto-fascist state as well: xenophobe and racist policies against immigrants; a totalitarian-military State; the Nazis will come sooner, or maybe they are policing Britain now.
Whether you are an immigrant or not, reply No to the charges for immigrants, fill the questionaire, and post it to the British Home Office by 8 December 2004.

Tony’s Blair speech titled “Attracting more international students” delivered in the 18th of June1999, available at: http://www.number10.gov.uk/output/Page3369.asp
“Wherever I travel, I meet international leaders who have studied in Britain. Dynamic, intelligent people who chose Britain because we offer high quality further and higher education. This is good news for the UK. People who are educated here have a lasting tie for our country. They promote Britain around the world, helping our trade and our diplomacy. It is easier for our executives and our diplomats to do business with people familiar with Britain”.
