Demonstrators at a removal centre at Gatwick protest against plans to send migrants to Rwanda
HUNDREDS are set to protest outside detention centres this weekend against the Tories’ “racist, punitive and illegal” Rwanda policy ahead of a major High Court case challenging the scheme.
The rallies are due to be held on Sunday at detention sites near Heathrow and Manchester airports. They are aimed at showing solidarity with detained asylum-seekers facing removal to the east African country, organisers said.
It comes a day before the start of a legal challenge against the policy at the High Court on Monday, brought by Care4Calais, Detention Action and Border Force workers’ union PCS, as well as several asylum-seekers.
