Preparations for Calais No Border Camp taking shape
Indymedia UK - 4 Jun 2009
Initiatives from the UK, France, Belgium and Germany are currently preparing a protest camp against border controls in Calais, France. The camp, which will take place between 23th and 29th June, will include a transnational demonstration on Saturday, 27th June. The callout describes the aims of the camp as “highlighting the realities of the situation of migrants in Calais” and “challenging the authorities on the ground, to protest against increased repression of migrants and local activists alike.” The camp mobilisation in the UK is carried by the No Borders UK network, which calls for the freedom of movement for all and an end to all migration controls.Resources: Callout for the camp | Transnational demonstration | Red Pepper article | Schnews article | Mobilisation video | London No Borders page about Calais | Travel to demo from London
