At 4am on Thursday 15th April a 40 year-old Kenyan man detained at Oakington immigration prison near Cambridge died after being refused medical care by G4S staff.

There were day-long protests and a stand-off between detainees and police following the death. More than 180 detainees broke through the gates of one of the detention centre's compounds and occupied a courtyard, preventing police and coroners officials entering the room where the man's body lay. 60 of the "ringleaders" of the protest have now been moved to other detention centres and prisons.

Stop Deportation, along with other groups in Europe, are proposing a European Week of Action Against the Deportation Machine, with a focus on joint European mass deportation flights and Frontex. The proposed date is the first week of June 2010, 1st-6th.

On Tuesday 23rd March, London No Borders activists protested at the "Policing the Borders" conference in central London, and managed to shut down the conference. See the video here.

On Saturday 27th March, activists from London No Borders and No Borders Brighton had a protest at the WH Tours office in Crawley. WH Tours are a coach company that transfer immigration detainees to airports to be deported. See report and photos here.
