Shut Down Yarls Wood 12
Yarl's Wood, Bedford. Sat 18 Nov 2017
People meet up on the roadside outside Twinwoods and hold a rally
while waiting for all the coaches to arrive
Movement for Justice had some new posters, large enough so the women
inside Yarls Wood would be able
to read them when they were held up facing the immigration prison.
Freddy, a former asylum detainee was the main person to speak before
we left to march to Yarls Wood
and he leads some chanting
'Dignity Not Detention'
Oxford Migrant Solidarity
People shout 'Yarlswood! Shut it Down!'
'No Human is Illegal'
A young protester with a poster showing a butterfly and the message
'Freedom is a human right'
'No One is Illegal'
Mfj had brought a ladder
Antonia Bright of Movement for Justice speaks
'End Detention Now'
The march to Yarls Wood starts along the road
and on the wide grass verge
then turns down the public footpath
and along a short length of a byway
then along the path beside another field. 'Brexit is Racist - Stop
Brexit'
One of the campaigners kindly offered to push my bike so I could take
pictures of the marcher
'Set Her Free' , 'Amnesty for All Undocumented'
'Your Blood is our Blood Your Fight is our Fight TOgether We WIn'
People carry the MfJ banner
'Shut Down Yarls Wood + All Detention Centres'
'Dignity Not Detention'
