"Police in Scotland have been put on alert because of the high risks of street protests and attempts by pro-refugee campaigners to stop detentions.
Local communities in Scotland have twice prevented deportations by staging mass protests on Kenmure Street in Glasgow, in May 2021, and in Nicolson Square, Edinburgh, in June 2022."
We need the spirit of Kenmure Street across the UK.

The Home Office will launch a surprise operation to detain asylum seekers across the UK tomorrow..
Officials will hold refugees who turn up for routine meetings at immigration offices & also pick people up nationwide.
They will be immediately transferred to previously prepared detention centres & held to be put on later flights to Rwanda.
Anyone who takes part in this disgusting operation is breaking international law.

s/: Hm, IDK, #Rishi. As a descendent of a people that were colonized by the #Brits, did it never occur to you that the Torys destroyed #Britains's attractiveness with #Brexit so much, that not even #AsylumSeekers want to go there anymore for lack of a better life? /s
