HUNDREDS of activists and Cop26 delegates gathered in Glasgow today to demand justice for migrants as the climate summit neared its end.

Campaigners met on Kenmure Street in the city’s Pollokshields  district almost six months to the day after residents of the area frustrated a Home Office attempt to remove two refugees from their homes and detain them. 

The march, which ended at the Home Office building in the city, saw international activists demand better treatment for refugees and the withdrawal of the Nationality and Borders Bill that is currently going through Parliament.
