WH deporTOUR

NoBorders activists visit WHtour, a coach company (based in Crawley) near Gatwick airport, that provides coaches for transporting detained migrants from immigration prisons to airports to be deported on commercial or specially chartered flights. Unfortunately a policeman that followed the activists, suggested to the people in the office that they didn’t want peaceful activists there. So police quickly and quite violently pushed activists outside the premises.

The day before activists organised a phone blockade, to try to express their disgust to the company. When the activists politely suggested that the inhuman way to run WH should change, emploees on the phone answered “Tell this to someone who cares!” or “It doesn’t concern me or my family”…
