Home Office sentenced to a week of action by the People's Trial

IMMIGRATION rights campaigners have sentenced the Home Office to a week of direct action for “murder, rape, rampant racism and upholding neocolonial power.”

After the guilty verdict was reached by the People’s Trial of the Home Office on Tuesday, London’s Marsham Street, where the government department is located, was shut down by protesters this morning to end “business as usual.”

Two activists were arrested for criminal damage and Home Office staff were forced to wait outside alongside fountains dyed blood red to represent the “cruel and inhumane violence” of the government’s policies.
