Kurdish family snatched and face deportation 06/11/06: TCAR Mobilises on Tyneside

TCAR (Tyneside Community Action for Refugees), 05-12-2006 12:38

On Tuesday 5 December around 25 refugees and local people living in Newcastle gathered outside Government Offices North East to say: ‘Immigration is no crime, End detention! Deportation is the crime, Lock up Labour!’. This comes in the wake of a week of protests inside Britain’s immigration detention centres, and follows the detention of a Kurdish asylum seeking family at their home in Fenham in the early hours of Monday morning, with the intention to deport them to Turkey on Turkish Airlines flight TK1980, leaving Heathrow at 11.45am this Wednesday. (this is the same flight booked for Hassan from Unity in Glasgow -  http://scotland.indymedia.org/newswire/display/3440/index.php) Tyneside Community Action for Refugees took to the streets Tuesday morning to protest against all immigration detention, and to demand the immediate release of Hidayet Ozdemir, his pregnant wife Hatin and their two children, 12 year old Denniz and 7 year old Guseren.

Manchester protest at JJB sacking

jjbfightback (reposted), 03-12-2006 14:19

Last night a dozen or so supporters protested outside the JJB Sports shops on Market Street, Manchester during the evening rush. The response from the public was fantastic - the vast majority of customers turned away.

Shop management didn't seem too chuffed, the manager was buzzing between the shops watching in dismay. They took photos of the protesters (if you're reading this, can you send a copy so we can post it here?). Don't worry, you aren't going to need photos to remember what protests look like if the sacked union rep isn't reinstated quickly! Read more >>

new anti-human resources blog

anon, 29-11-2006 07:09

"Human Recourses (Ree-Kor-Sez) is real and straight talk about work, jobs, wage slavery, unions, the guvmint, employers, and other topics related to the real world of employment. As an antidote to the company line, and the synchopants that seem to tow it in governments and union bureaucracies, we will attempt in earnest to simply call bullshit; and provide some insight on what to do about it..."

Anti Deportation Protest, Manchester

North West Asylum Seekers Defence Group, 28-11-2006 22:46

Approximately 30,000 immigrants and asylum seekers are locked up in detention centres and prisons in Britain every year, including over 2000 children and babies. About 400 are deported from Britain every week, including children and babies. Some say Britain is not a racist state, but facts are stubborn little things and have to be reckoned with.
