Demonstration Against Deportations to Zimbabwe

Disillusioned kid | 28.06.2008 11:42 | Migration | Repression | Nottinghamshire

On Friday June 27, as Zimbabwe went to the polls in the widely criticised second round of its presidential election, the Nottingham Zimbabwe Community Network held a protest against deportations to Zimbabwe in Old Market Square.

Around 30 people turned up, with a mix of Zimbabweans and supporters. While relatively small, the demonstration was noisy, with protesters singing and chanting, and attracted considerable attention from passers-by.

The demonstration followed a similar event held in March to coincide with the first round of the election.

The demonstration was followed by a public meeting held at the Sumac Centre. Following food provided by Small World Kitchen, a range of speakers described the situation in Zimbabwe, sketched out the history of the opposition in the country and recounted their own experiences of being an asylum seeker in the UK.

During the talks and in the question and answer session which followed, it was clear there was some disagreement amongst the speakers as to what the UK Government should do in response to the situation in Zimbabwe. Some believed that things were so bad that they justified military intervention, while others believed this would be counterproductive (a view which seemed to be shared by many in the audience), believing that a UN peacekeeping force would be preferable.

Newsflash, Zimbabwe has human rights

28.06.2008 12:39

Zimbabwe is a peaceful, progressive, democratic, revolutionary socialist paradise and Cde Mugabe looks forward to welcoming you all you long-lost counter-revolutionaries home. Special accommodation has been constructed to house you.
(Hope that's OK, any news on my cheque?)

MDC provoke civil unrest

28.06.2008 15:18

MDC unleashes a reign of terror

Zimupdates (07/05/08)

MDC supporters in Makoni West constituency of Manicaland province have gone on systematic rampage aimed at ZANU (PF) stalwarts in the area. The supporters are beating up and burning houses belonging to ZANU (PF) members and telling them to leave the constituency since it was won by the MDC candidate, Webber Chinyadza.
.
In one such incident the ZANU (PF) District treasurer, Misheck Nefudzo had his house and granary burnt down by MDC youths from the area. The unfolding of recent events are pointing the fact the MDC-T activists are provoking the situation on the ground so that ZANU (PF) retaliates and the situation becomes ungovernable. It would appear the MDC-T is itching for a chaotic situation to prevail in this country, which would eventually degenerate into a civil unrest.

Despite the above, the same instigators are on the lead to tell the story on the ground on camera and appear so victimized and yet they are the perpetrators of this violence that has gripped the countryside. The resettled farmers it would appear are being brutalized by the MDC for not having voted for them and are being accused of betraying the MDC-T regime change agenda
