Dear Supporter
Thank you on behalf of my own organisation BARAC UK and the other 8 organisations who initiated this petition, for signing it. Nearly 2000 of you have signed in just a few hours since we launched it this afternoon.
The campaign to stop the flight has received International and National news coverage including the following:
Shockingly and disgracefully up to 150 people are being targeted for deportation next Wednesday 21st of July, to Zimbabwe.
We have also been contacted by politicians and migrant rights groups giving their support and asking to be added as supporters, this includes:
Diane Abbott MP
Migrant Voice
Channel Rescue
Voices4 London
Migrants in Culture
New Queers on the Block
performingborders
SOAS Detainee Support
Docs not Cops
South Yorkshire Migration and Asylum Action Group (SYMAAG)
Our thanks to everyone who has offered their support.
We need to keep up the pressure and we need you to take action as follows:
1. Please share this update and the petition on social media and with your networks using the hashtags;
#StoptheFlight #Zimbabwe150
2. Please write to your MP using the template letter produced by BARAC UK here, which also includes a link to help you find your MP if you don't know who they are.
Best Regards
Zita
Zita Holbourne, National Chair BARAC UK
