Drafts available on request. What is needed is somebody else to write, especially about migrant workers, the tube cleaners struggle, sex workers and so. I specialise in writing about detention and deportations. I have a long quote from Salima and want to publish extracts of the letter George sent to lord Avebury during the Colnbrook hunger strike. More contributions from migrants and asylum seekers very welcome. Also very much appreciated: analysis of the migration phenomenon and the function of border controls from a noborders and anti-capitalist perspective; something about the exteranlistion of borders; international struggles; major incidents eg. the migrants shot dead at the Spanish border; anything else you think relevant. I also wonder if the NoBorders London group would like to produce the factsheet or zine. I'd like to head it ' NOBORDERS' and I wonder if other noborders grups would like to make contributions. Due to time limits all contributions should ideally arrive inside the next 2 weeks. Later contributions can still be considered, also for further publications, or put on websites. If anyone would like to take part in editing, graphics etc please let me know. All by email as far as I'm concerned as I'm in Italy at the moment. I'll be back well before October the 7th Thanks, Chiara 0039 040 566300 --------------------------------- The all-new Yahoo!

Hope it's ok. -- Shiar Birmingham NoBorders is a network of grassroots activists who work on immigration- and asylum-related issues and struggle for the freedom of movement for all people, for the right of all to stay in the places they choose, against repression and the many controls that multiply the borders everywhere in all countries. Birmingham NoBorders, along with the Birmingham Anti Racist Campaign, have been holding a monthly picket at the immigration reporting centre in Solihull, on the last Friday of every month. A banner is erected to obscure the official sign of the building and asylum seekers' stories and the true facts about asylum are told with placards, leaflets and megaphone. Birmingham NoBorders are also facilitating weekly 'voucher swapping' with asylum seekers who get vouchers for their NASS support. At the moment, at least ?210 worth is swapped every weeks. The network of people involved is slowly becoming wider and wider. Apart from general refugee support work, members of the group are involved in supporting asylum seekers in building up and running their anti-deportation campaigns.

We will meet near Waterstones at 1:30 on 7 October. We will be making placards/preparing cards to be read out at a ceremony next Tuesday night, 7pm sharp, at UCE, in Dawson Building room D225. Please come, bring placards, cardboard, staple guns and stories of people you know or have heard of, which can be read aloud at this ceremony.
