Birmingham NoBorders Protest at the Immigration Reporting Centre in Solihull
Birmingham NoBorders | 29.04.2006 12:05 | April 2006 No Borders Days of Action | Anti-racism | Migration | Birmingham
Following a call-out by Birmingham NoBorders earlier this week, some 20 people, including a few asylum seekers, demonstrated yesterday (28 April, 2006) at the West Midlands Immigration Centre in Solihull. The demonstration was in solidarity with the ongoing hunger strikes in various detention centres and to protest against the inhumane treatment of asylum seekers that this place embodies, from asylum seekers’ having to "sign on" every week to "snatch squads" and "dawn raids".
