There will be a demonstration on Friday 19th Sept in Manchester outside the Italian Consulate (111 Piccadilly Manchester, M1 2HY) at 11.30am.
The demo follows serious attacks on Roma people in Italy including physical attacks on camps, threats of fingerprinting of the Roma population (including children) and right-wing/fascist manipulations by Italian politicians & press that are linking Roma people to 'crime' and 'illegal immigration' which is increasing popularist calls for their expultion from Roma and destruction of camps. [see 14th August post]
Manchester No Borders and Roma groups in the north-west have already confirmed they will participate.
Please come & bring placards & banners!
