Close Communications House! Demonstration 30/11/10

Communications House is an anonymous looking government building in a central location. If you walked past and didn't know what it was, you'd pay no attention.

But Communications House is one of Britain's network of Immigration Reporting Centres, where asylum seekers and other immigrants have to sign on monthly, weekly, sometimes even daily, and from where they can be snatched at any moment and taken to detention in order to be deported. This is part of a system introduced by the Labour government and which the new 'ConDems' show no sign of condemning to history.

Communications House is itself a prison, with cells. Officially. The Chief Inspector of Prisons remit covers 'Short Term Holding Facilities' of which Communications House is one.

So join us Fight Racism! Fight Imperialism! and expose the nasty interior of this place for the world to see. Join the demo outside Communications House Immigration Reporting Centre, Old Street, London EC1V 9BR. Bring friends, banners, noise, music, leaflets, banners.
