Migrant solidarity in London and Manchester
The response to our page on Facebook was phenomenal! A deluge, hundreds of emails, making offers, asking advice, intending to start similar actions in Chester, Stoke, Merseyside, Kendal…
Was it a reaction against Cameron’s hard-faced stance towards refugees and migrants? A UK echo, perhaps, of the success of Podemos or Syriza in Europe?
We started with a handful of people in our front room. Some from rs21, some new faces, a couple who had formed a group called “Open Borders” who had already been to Calais with a vanload of donations and whose experience helped to keep our discussions realistic.
