THERE will be a small vigil held in Uppermill on Tuesday, November 3 in memory of the family who died in The English Channel last week, and all those who have lost their lives at sea trying to seek asylum.
People are invited to gather by the Peace Pole outside Uppermill Library for the vigil starting at 2pm. People must be socially distanced and wear masks.
Alternatively, people can join in from their own homes by holding their own vigil, taking photos and posting them to social media with the hashtags: #SafePassage #EuropeMustAct #BecauseWeCare
People are also invited to make a paper origami boat and can write on a message or perhaps the names of the family: Rasul, Shiva, Anita (age 9), Armin (age 6), Artin (15 months, still missing at sea).
On Wednesday, November 4 MPs will vote on an amendment to post-Brexit Immigration Bill that calls for unaccompanied child refugees to be reunited with close relatives in the UK after December 31.

This post on Facebook brought all the thick racists who live in Saddleworth out of the woodwork, so at least we know who they are now (although most of them have Union Jack or Tommy Robinson photos on their profiles so it’s not hard!) Well done on winding up all the Gammon – keep up the good work 😂
