| 📍 WHERE: Taylor House Immigration Court, 88 Rosebery Ave, London EC1R 4QU 📅 WHEN: Tuesday, 7 July ⏰ TIME: 12:30 PM – 1:30 PM ✊ ORGANISED BY: Global Women Against Deportations & All African Women’s Group Politicians and the media have whipped up hatred against asylum seekers and migrants. Now the government plans even more brutal immigration policies: temporary refugee status, cuts to essential support, separating mothers from their children forever, restricted appeals that deny people a fair hearing, more detention camps for children & families. Women say: “We have a right to safety and protection. Women and children are being attacked by racists in the streets, and in hotels where we are placed. We were horrified to see the attacks on immigrants in Belfast, we feel for them and know what happens there impacts what happens here. Labour is pushing policies to make us even more vulnerable to violence, and make it even harder to survive. They want us wait 20 years to get the right to stay, to cut support which is already poverty level, make it even harder to bring our children and increase detention and deportations, even to war zones. Immigrants do vital work – we cook, we clean, we care – if we stop everything stops. They wrecked our country and the wealth is here, so we have every right to come here and claim back what was stolen. “ What is done to asylum seekers today is done to everyone tomorrow. Look at ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) in the US where government thugs are kidnapping and shooting mothers, even citizens like Renee Good, with impunity, it must never happen here. But the millions mobilising worldwide against genocide, war, occupation, climate breakdown and other atrocities that force people to flee their homes, are determined to survive and fight – every life is of value and we will defend it. |
