Mass protest inside Harmondsworth immigration detention centre
8 March 2015, 7.25pm

e: detaineesriseup@riseup.net

More than 200 people detained in Harmondsworth immigration detention
centre are mobilising a hunger strike from 8.00am tomorrow, following a
noise demonstration inside the centre today.

They are protesting for an end to:

• indefinite deprivation of liberty and human rights
• the use of “Detained Fast Track” [1]
• bias and incompetence in case-handling by the Home Office
• unlawful forced removals
• stressful and degrading conditions which they describe as “mental
torture” and which lead many to self-harm
• overcrowded accommodation “comparable to animal cages”
• refusals to return those who want to go back to their countries of
origin

Similar protests have taken place this week by women inside Yarl’s Wood
immigration detention centre. The resistance follows this week’s release
of undercover film footage of Yarl’s Wood and Harmondsworth by Channel 4
[2], and a parliamentary inquiry report into detention [3].

One protester said of the treatment by Harmondsworth staff: “It’s like
we are animals. They are not giving us help or proper food. if anyone
came inside and see conditions here they would see and release us.”
Another said detention was “mentally torturing” them.

Protesters say staff are threatening them with prison if they do not
stop protesting.
