No Borders London has called another demonstration at the headquarters of Kalyx, the private company that runs Harmondsworth immigration detention centre. We will be demanding that closure of the centre and supporting the detainees who demonstrated in defence of their freedom in late November.

Details: Monday 18th December, 4:30 - 5:30pm at Kalyx, 25 Chapel Street, NW1 5DH (Edgware Road Tube Station).

Extracts from What really happenened at Harmondsworth? - article in the Guardian this week:

We received this report yesterday of a protest at Oakington detention centre in Cambridgeshire:

Detainees in Oakington Reception Centre have been protesting through out the day, numbers of them assembled outside the canteen and refused to enter for meals and there was apparently a stand off between detainees and guards. Problems the long term detainees say have been exacerbated by sudden overcrowding with detainees being moved from Campsfield to make room for detainees from Harmondsworth.
