Calais: Palestine House evicted!

13-05-2012 20:36

The last big migrant squat in Calais, known as Palestine House, was evicted Thursday 10th May. Some 50 people were thrown out in the street, though no arrests were made. People were not allowed to collect their blankets, only small bags of personal property. Some people who had applied for asylum in France were offered accommodation in hostels, some very far from Calais and in the middle of nowhere: most turned the offers down. Some of the Sudanese who were in Palestine House have moved to another Sudanese squat, the other occupiers are in the street.

Far right get grooming case wrong

10-05-2012 16:13

The recent conviction of a grooming gang of nine Muslim men from Rochdale has put the far right into a frenzy. Anti-fascists might remember that the far right have been all over this case since the start of the trial. The EDL, BNP, National Front, Infidels and British Peoples Party all turned up to protest at the start of the trial, attempted to attack the defendants and almost caused a mistrial by attacking the defence barristers. There then followed attempts to stir up race riots in Heywood, when shops and businesses belonging to Muslims were attacked by a mob of white youths, something that was whipped up online by nationalists desperate for a populist cause (for example, posters on Nazi site, Stormfront, who could barely suppress their excitement about the “Race riot in Heywood!!! On now!”). None of the businesses targeted were actually owned by the men involved in the trial.
