End the brutal Rwanda policy, protesters demand
Nationwide action set to take place outside detention centres across Britain
The Dungavel detention centre in Scotland is among the locations of demonstrations around the country

PROTESTS are being held outside detention centres across Britain this weekend to demand the government drop its “inhumane” plans to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda. 

The nationwide action is aimed at sending a message of solidarity to men and women imprisoned inside the detention estate, campaigners told the Star.

Rallies are set to take place outside Harmondsworth and Colnbrook, near Heathrow, as well as Dungavel in Scotland and Derwentside — the Home Office’s new all-women immigration removal centre in County Durham.
