A network of community campaigns to end immigration detention #TheseWallsMustFall

Here's to more organising meetings! Thank you to the allies and supporters who joined us this evening to get involved in leading local #TheseWallsMustFall campaigning across Greater Manchester. It's time to end detention. #Solidarity

It shouldn't require a TV news report to get repairs done! Serco is a multinational corporation making £millions from government contracts. This includes to run immigration detention centres like Yarl’s Wood, and to provide crappy accommodation for people seeking asylum in UK.

Joyce is a campaigner with #TheseWallsMustFall in NW England. Its not just detention she speaks out about.

Detention 'changes you forever' - #TheseWallsMustFall on the fights we still have to win, 200 years after Peterloo as part of #peterloo2019 #NoOneIsIllegal #ShutDownYarlsWood

Just arrived in Govan for a workshop with the Glasgow No Evictions Network and the first thing we see is a statue commemorating Mary Barbour, local hero and leader of the 1915 rent strikes. "We will not be removed!"
Hundreds of people refused asylum are facing imminent eviction from their homes, by Serco, the accommodation provider for the Home Office. Glasgow folk are getting seriously organised to resist.

Beautiful book for children by @maryhill_in in Glasgow. About migration and seeking sanctuary, travelling to an island looking for safety but finding a hostile environment and cages.

Holiday time? Spare a thought – and solidarity – for those in detention, hidden away at UK airports.

As the holiday season approaches, alongside the prospect of another brief summer in the UK, those of us privileged enough to do so find ourselves arriving at airports, eagerly awaiting our escapism.

But most holiday makers do not know that their chosen airport is a prison to those who want to stay in the UK.

The workshop in Sheffield tonight was about practical steps to take if you're worried about immigration detention. It's a difficult subject to talk about, but we heard many wise words from experts-by-experience. And on leaving, a rainbow of hope arched over Chapel Walk. We are back in 2 weeks for a workshop on campaigning to end immigration detention.

Local These Walls Must Fall campaigners were at Dallas Court immigration reporting centre in Salford, this morning. Manchester DJ Owen Haisley had to go to report, and people came in solidarity. Owen had no idea if he would be in for 5 minutes, or be taken to a detention centre to be held without time limit until the UK Home Office decides to release him or deport him. This is experienced by thousands of people every day across the UK who are awaiting decisions on applications to remain in the UK.

DJ Owen Haisley speaking about his recent detention at Morton Hall and Harmondsworth IRCs and threatened deportation to Jamaica and the petition of 107,000 people for his release. Owen explained "I think detention centres should be closed down" to a round of applause. "I'm no having anxiety, I'm panicking." Owen talked about the way he like many others was punished twice for the conviction he served a sentence for, but was then punished through the detention system again. "I've done my time, done my crime, done my rehabilitation - I deserve a second chance. Just like anybody else". #enddetention #thesewallsmustfall #enddeportations

In Sheffield, discussing the campaign to end immigration detention, under the shadow of former Home Secretary Blunkett, arguably the inventor of the Hostile Environment (that Theresa May took to another level).

Thank you Amnesty International Wakefield for your support for These Walls Must Fall and having us at your meeting. They told us about a number of local people who have been detained from Wakefield in the last year and the impact it has on the community there. We look forward to continuing to work together and with all of our other supporters across Yorkshire!

These Walls Must Fall is an initiative coordinated by Right to Remain. We are building a network of community campaigns to raise awareness of and challenge the use of immigration detention in the UK. We are extremely grateful for the financial support through charitable grant funding from Paul Hamlyn Foundation, Ben and Jerry's, and from public donations.
