Campaigners slam home office after dawn raid on a refugee’s home

ASYLUM campaigners have hit out at the Home Office after immigration officials carried out a dawn raid on a refugee’s home in Glasgow.

Activists from across Scotland gathered on Saturday to highlight the “abhorrent” treatment of those seeking refuge in Britain after it emerged that a home had been targeted on Friday. 

More than 30 people gather outside the Home Office in Glasgow on Saturday morning in a demonstration called by campaigners from the Maryhill Integration Network (MIN).
