Tariq Hamid Majid is the lead singer of the Daholl Kurdish Foundation, who will be performing at next Saturday afternoon's Refugee Week event in Birmingham's Chamberlain Square. His claim for asylum has been refused by the Home office on the demonstrably untrue grounds that it is not believed that he is a professional singer and that, even if that were the case, there is no evidence to suggest that singers are at risk of persecution in Iraq.

The Bristol Mobilisation for the Calais No Border Camp (23-27 June, 2009) is und

04-06-2009 10:24

The rise in influence of The BNP, UKIP and the rest of the racist right is made possible by the idea that “stopping” migration is either achievable or desirable. In the current race debate, which is dominated by the eugenicist front “Migration Watch” and their lapdogs at the Express and Mail groups, a position that talks about migration in terms of ending all border controls seems unthinkable.

Israel lobby commits major blunder in France: tries to silence a comedian

01-06-2009 10:19

Dieudonné M'bala M'bala
Having always enjoyed ridiculing pretty much every segment of French society, French-Cameroonian comedian Dieudonne clearly had never expected the hysterical uproar that his humor would trigger: the huge constellation of French Zionists organizations immediately attacked Dieudonne, suing him for racists comments and suing him for "anti-Semitism" (a criminal offense in France).

This was hardly the first time that the French Zionist mob had decided to crush an outspoken critic of its role in French politics or its unconditional support for the last racist state on the planet: Israel. But this time, the Ziomob miscalculated, badly. Dieudonne began making the accusations of anti-Semitism made against him a central piece of his shows.
