from email, 16 September 2008:

Fort Europe looms over us. From fences with armed guards to the moat that is the Mediterranean. From an Italy where attempts are made to impose race laws against the romani, to a Sweden where deportations are celebrated with champagne and cake at the Migration Office.

For these reasons and many more an action group from the European Social Forum Action Network intact a day without deportations during the European Social Forum, ESF.

Thursday on the 18th will be decentralised actions as well as a larger
demonstration.

- "Champagne breakfast” starts at 7.30 am outside the Migration Office. The demonstration gathers at Stortorget, Malmö, at 11 am and then leaves for the Migration Office.
