A FLOTILLA full of tents, food and games sets sail for France today in a display of solidarity with refugees stranded at the port of Calais.
Over 20 people and five vehicles full of donations worth over £1,000 will cross the Channel as part of the United Kingdom Humanitarian Intervention Party (UKHIP) convoy to migrant camps.
UKHIP is the brainchild of several groups and individuals who want to dispel the “toxic attitude towards migration promoted by Ukip and the Daily Mail.”
This time it is joined by famed Amazon union organiser Chris Smalls and the new vessel, the Handala, will carry baby formula for Gaza’s starving children just weeks after Israeli forces abducted the Madleen’s crew in international waters, reports ANA VRACAR
JAMES WALSH is moved by an exhibition of graphic art that relates horrors that would be much less immediate in other media
