Nationwide Noise Demonstrations in Support of Asylum Seekers
Thursday 22nd June - Newcastle/London/Manchester/Leeds


Newcastle based group Tyneside Community Action for Refugees (TCAR) is coordinating a National Day of Action against Home Office reporting centres in Britain on Thursday, 22nd June.


TCAR will be staging a lively noise demonstration outside the reporting centre in North Shields which asylum rights groups in London, Leeds and Manchester will join by demonstrating outside their local reporting centres.

Hundreds of participants will bring pots, pans, drums and musical instruments and local asylum seekers will share their stories and experiences of the immigration system. At the end of the day TCAR will present a list of demands to the Home Office calling for an end to the criminalisation of asylum seekers. These demands include an end to the detention of children, forced deportation, tagging, and the indefinite detention of people without bail. There will then be a march to North Shields town centre.
