national / racism & migration related issues / event notice Friday November 16, 2007 17:31 by Rachael Wilson
Official policy around race and immigration is becoming increasingly ambiguous. While government agencies like the Equality Commission remain committed to a vision of society where difference is respected and valued, the security services are ‘cracking down’ on ‘bogus’ asylum seekers and ‘illegal immigrants’ using a complex array of legal and regulatory measures, including the proliferation of administrative detention and compulsory dispersal.
Belfast Exposed is currently showing Melanie Friend’s Border Country, which documents the physical structures of UK Immigrant Removal Centres alongside the voices of detainees. As further context to the exhibition, Belfast Exposed is pleased to welcome human rights lawyer John Fitzpatrick to the gallery to talk about his practice defending immigration detainees and to discuss the rights and wrongs of immigration law with the audience. read full story / add a comment

Personal Reflections of illness and the Irish system

MRSA and its impact on people, on families........Are we negligent?

It is not acceptable for our hospitals to be plagued with a disease that is in effect a silent killer and if it fails to kill you leaves you a victim for life of health system that will eventually destroy you.

For people with long term illness, the lack of multi-disciplinary medics and an over abundance of management/staff, cleaners etc., the hospitals do not get cleaned as used to be the case. read full story / add a comment
