Gatwick No Border Camp 2007
http://no-racism.net/article/2244/
From 19th to 24th of September 2007 a noborder camp will take place at Gatwick
Airport near London.
As the government started to build a :: new immigration prison (Brook House at
Gatwick Airport, near Crawley), the :: No Border Camp is getting :: closer: Sept
19-24. Among the :: various actions announced, Saturday, the 22nd, will see a ::
demonstration from Crawley to Tinsley House, the already existing immigration prison
at Gatwick, next to the planned site of the new centre. There will be workshops both
:: at the camp and at :: Goldsmith University the week before, to coincide with the
30th anniversary of the :: Battle of Lewisham.
Days after the Home Office :: told refugees "We'll do everything we can to send you
home", 26 migrant prisoners :: escaped from Campsfield, Oxfordshire, following days
of protests. The riot was the latest episode in the migrants struggle inside
detention after the :: Harmondsworth riots last November.
Relentless protests, both inside adn outside detention, have managed to put many
detention and deportation profiteers on the map. On 17 August, activists :: occupied
the office of XL Airways in Crawley to protest against the charter airline's role in
forecul deportations on behalf of the Home Office. Several :: demonstrations have
been announced for August 28th to protest against a planned charter flight to ::
deport a number of rejected asylum seekers to DR Congo.
Two years of No Borders UK
It was before the G8 2005 in Scotland that initiatives started to network around the
issues of Freedom Of Movement in the UK again. A :: Make Borders History demo took
place in Glasgow during the :: 2005 G8 summit in Scotland, calling at several
institutions and companies involved in the Border Regime. Shortly after the G8,
activists forced the YMCA to :: withdraw from an "asylum slavery Scheme".
During the following year, No Borders groups were set up all over the country, in ::
London, Brighton, Cardiff, :: Nottingham, Leeds and other cities. Regular
demonstrations targeted immigration reporting centres and as well as detention
centres.
The year 2006 saw the first UK-wide :: No Borders Gathering in London (on 11-12
March) at the Square Social Centre. Exactly one year later, :: another gathering was
held in Glasgow at the :: Unity centre. The initiatives naturally had different focal
points, from fighting against dawn raids [:: 1 :: 2 :: 3 :: 4 :: 5 :: 6],
anti-deportation actions (e.g. in :: Leeds ), campaigning against the :: point-based
system, to solidarity with migrant workers (e.g. :: justice for cleaners) and, of
course, demonstrations at :: immigration prisons. In :: Glasgow, people started ::
Unity, a union of by and for asylum seekers. In London, Harmondsworth became ::
another focus of protests as well as building up :: practical support for detainees.
The :: October 7th Network organised a demonstration in London as part of the ::
Transnational Day Of Action for migrants' rights. However, when the Home Office
disclosed plans to build a new immigration prison at Gatwick, the new :: Brook House
became a focus for the whole network.
The upcoming No Border Camp is organised by No Borders groups from Birmingham,
Brighton, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Nottingham, Sheffield and Cardiff and supported by
:: Barbed Wire Britain, Unity, Feminist Against Borders, West Midlands Antifa, :: Sex
Workers Union, Vapaa Liikkuvuus (freedom of movement-group in Finland), :: Campaign
to Close Campsfield, :: No One Is Illegal, Fight Racism! Fight Imperialism! and many
more.
Upcoming events in the next few weeks include:
Wednesday August 22nd: :: film screening at the Camberwell Social Centre.
The next :: Camp public meeting will take place on September 2nd in Brighton.
Events During The No Border Camp:
Thursday, 20th September
Welcome Demonstration - Crawley Town Centre, 5pm-7pm. To inform people about and
invite them to participate in the No Border Camp.

Gathering at Lunar House, the Home Office reporting centre in East Croydon, 10am-2pm.

Forum at the camp.
