1 March: after a revolt that has gone on for days, the detention centre in Gradisca is in a state of collapse: one single cell left for the 100 detainees, people eating and sleeping in the corridors and in the canteen, one bathroom for everyone. You can see some pictures here. The detainees’ revolt almost completely destroyed the building, but the detainees couldn’t be transferred, as the other detention centres were packed full. Revolts and riots are not new to this detention centre; things have been worsening over the last couple of years. In September 2009, a similar revolt was brutally repressed by the police.Protest at Yarl's Wood in solidarity with women immigration detainees

Detention of children - a makeover.
04-03-2011 11:06
The detention of children for immigration purposes was labelled "state sponsored cruelty" by the Lib Dems and Yarl's Wood is being forced to close in May. Instead, they aim to open "pre-departure accommodation" at Peas Pottage near Crawley. This is just an image makeover and one we can prevent.Being treated as a criminal as first sight !!

I was held at the UK Border in Heathrow airport. I was interviewed as to my intention to visit Liverpool. I was to be present at the birth of my second child with my partner and mother of our 1st daughter. They did not believe me. I was denied entry. The Officer that interviewed me thought that Liverpool was a shithole of a city and didn't like it. Perhaps that was the reason I was denied entry. I do have an appeal pending of an unmarried partner application as well.Palestine Bike Ride to visit Calais Migrant Solidarity on 23rd March.
