26-08-2004 21:30

lollypop action
Campsfield Immigrant Detention Centre is a place where innocent people are made to suffer. It has a 10-year history of brutality, suicide-attempts, hunger strikes, and
massive protests. In 2002 the Government finally admitted that it was "unsuited to the needs of the 21st century", and announced its closure. But instead, the Home Office has now sent Cherwell District Council a planning application to expand it from 180 to nearly 300 places.

All detention centres are trouble - for the innocent people inside and everyone who lives near them. But big detention centres are real trouble.

The High Priests of Economic Nonsense

26-08-2004 16:35

"The rules of social state restraint of wild capitalism are ignored. The class struggle from above has long been a fact since the coalition of capital with the government is fairly stable and the media play along.

An economic literacy must be part of the enlightenment project.."

26-08-2004 13:03

Haringey Council follows the Government / IMF line of bullshitting to aid structural adjustment. Tennants are offered new identical formica kitchens in exchange for letting the government flog off the last of council housing. I ask tennants - How cheap are you?
