Protesters to rally across Britain in solidarity with refugees

PROTESTERS are rallying across Britain tomorrow to demand that the government take responsibility for refugees in Europe and end its “racist” border regime. 

The nationwide day of action, called by Stand up to Racism and Care4Calais, is being held in solidarity with asylum-seekers displaced by the Moria camp fire in Lesbos last week and those facing routine police brutality in northern France. 

Campaigners condemned the British government’s “shameful inaction” in response to the humanitarian crisis in Lesbos where 12,000 refugees have been sleeping in the streets for over a week, with little food or water.
