Action report-Angel Group targetted

No Angel | 14.04.2008 10:52 | 2008 Days Of Action For Autonomous Spaces | Free Spaces | Migration | Birmingham | World

As part of the days of action in support of squats and autonomous spaces-
Action at Angel Group- building graffitied, locks glued, 12 company vehicles damaged.

On the night of Friday 11th April offices of Angel Group came under attack. This was part of the days of action in support of squats and autonomous spaces.
Angel group make their money by providing poor quality housing for asylum seekers, profitting from vulnerable people and racist asylum laws.

This company were targetted as part of the days of action in support of squats and autonomous spaces because housing is a right, not a means to make profit. This company are known to exploit their position of providing housing to vulnerable people who are not in a position to complain, getting away with providing substandard accomodation.

The front of the Angel group offices were redecorated, slogans painted, and locks glued. 12 company vehicles were attacked with paint stripper, spray paint, and had their tyres slashed.

This should send a message to Angel that their racist business will not be tolerated.

This amazing story about Angel Group Protest in Leeds. The man who was asylum herself and was leading member and chief organizers of protest against Angel Group in Leeds betrayed all asylum people treated by Angel Group.
He stopped this protest and started work for Angel Group.
Previously he told that it is big organization we cannot confront them and late, after barging with Angel Group for salary started to work for them. It is so-called "United Refugee Organization" is organized by him for his own Goods.
30 Families were betrayed - he represented them previously.
