One year on…7.7.05

08-07-2006 00:10

Bristol - 6.7.05 (pic by Tom B)
As dusk falls, I try to remember…where exactly was I one year ago, as dusk fell?
Was I, as a legal volunteer from Bristol, monitoring protests against the G8 in Gleneagles (Scotland), still on duty outside the Stirling eco-camp attempting to monitor the police’s abuse of their powers? Or had I been replaced for the night, and made it back to our Edinburgh base (and pub)? It’s all such a blur now, yet only a year ago…

07-07-2006 20:23

‘Please, deliver us from this racist prison of Colnbrook immigration removal centre.
We have been detained indefinitely without having committed any crime; our only one crime is to claim asylum in the UK.
1.Some of us still have appeals pending; our countries are not safe for us to go back voluntarily.
2. Some of us who want to go back, but we are hostage, SERCO (the private company that runs the centre) is making money from us.’
