Call to Action:Shut Down Dungavel

 

DUNGAVEL IMMIGRATION REMOVAL CENTRE

Called by the STUC and the Glasgow Campaign to Welcome Refugees:

The new Tory government in Westminster spells bad news for refugees and other immigrants.  On the other hand the SNP has been the most positive and welcoming of all the major political parties.  This demonstration calling for the closure of Dungavel and all the other detention centres gives us the chance to strengthen the SNP’s resolve and let the Westminster government know they have a fight on their hands.  We will not let the next five years degenerate into a festival of xenophobia.  Scapegoating immigrants hurts us as well.  Note Ian Duncan Smith’s idea for plastic cards and no cash for those on benefits, first tried out on asylum seekers.  

Join the demonstration.  Both SWAN and the STUC are running buses.
