Deportation Resistance: Glasgow community defends neighbours

Jean Donnachie, Kingsway flats, Glasgow Scotstoun

In this Guardian G2 video (Friday 13th June 2008), a Glasgow community organises to protect friends and neighbours from forced deportation. Moving and uplifting. A rare example of a media report that doesn't present the working class and immigrants as beasts but shows humanity at its best. Report by Rachel Stevenson and Harriet Grant — well done!
