LEEDS NO BORDERS PRESENTS...

SATURDAY 6 MAY (12pm midday): GUIDED TOUR OF LEEDS ASYLUM SHAME

Come to Leeds to visit the places, companies and people that repress, 
exploit and benefit from asylum seekers in Leeds.

A guided tour of the causes of refugee flows (War, Militarism, 
Capitalist Globalisation), the detention and control of asylum seekers
