Profits of Doom Tue Apr 23, 2024 09:00 | Ben Pile There is, sadly, no Big Oil money sloshing around to handsomely remunerate climate sceptical journalism. But on the other side, the green prophets of doom are doing very well out of the whole thing, says Ben Pile.

Belfast Exposed’s latest exhibition, Border Country by Melanie Friend opens this Thursday evening in the gallery in Donegall Street. (see attached)
Melanie Friend spent four years documenting the physical structures of UK Immigrant Removal Centres (IRC), while recording the voices of detainees. She will make a short presentation about her work at the opening on Thursday evening:
‘By August 2003 I had negotiated access with the Home Office and the Governor of Dover… over three years I interviewed nine detainees… however transfers from and to IRCs across the country can happen suddenly as can removals… I listened to Afsham’s story of flight from persecution, and of her fear of punishment from Sharia law, I felt the immense gulf between her life and mine.’
Anna Morven, Immigration Advisor at the Law Centre and Chair of Northern Ireland’s Refugee Action Group will open the exhibition and talk about her experience as legal officer of the charity, Bail for Immigration Detainees (BID).
‘In Northern Ireland, immigration detainees were held in prisons here until a recent policy change. It is now the practice of the Border and Immigration Agency that people are moved from Northern Ireland to Scotland or England where they are detained in Immigration Removal Centres… Immigration detention is an administrative power. It is not sanctioned by any court and there is no maximum time limit on detention. Every detainee has the right to apply for bail. Yet a vast number of immigration detainees have no lawyer who is willing to assist them to challenge their detention’ Anna Morven
Melanie Friend will be in Belfast until the16th of November and available for interviews to discuss her four year investigative project into immigration, detention centres and asylum seekers in the UK.
