Conference against Immigration Controls, 29th March 2008

Saturday March 29th 2008 at the School for African and Oriental Studies, London WC1. Registration from 10.00am

Over the last three decades trade unionists have made a tremendous move forward in fighting racism. It is now seen as legitimate activity to support those under threat of deportation. However the trade union movement has not yet seen the necessity of fighting immigration controls as a whole. But controls are deliberately calculated to weaken the labour movement itself.
