No deportations to DRC – Birmingham's demo

IMCista | 29.08.2007 15:17 | Migration | Birmingham

West Midlands Congolese refugees and their supporters gathered in Victoria square, Birmingham city centre, yesterday (28 August) to celebrate a High Court ruling to halt all deportations to DR Congo pending a 'country guidance' hearing in September, and to protest against the Home Office attempts to 'remove' DRC nationals to the unsafe country. The demo was part of a national day of action called by the Congo Support Project before the High Court decision.
