February 28th, 2018 - London, UK: Small Pleasures fundraiser for Lesbian and Gays Support the Migrants at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern. LGMS Speaker: Ben Smoke From LGSM: "What is LGSMigrants? LGSMigrants recognise that in the current political climate immigrants bare the brunt of the rise in the far right and are criminalised and demonised by the state. We recognise that often our queerness is weaponised by the state and media to justify the barbaric treatment of migrants. We are here to work in solidarity with all people that fall victim to the xenophobic and racist British immigration system. Throughout recent history LGBTQ+ folk have been labelled illegal for just existing. The same is happening to people fleeing war, climate change and inequality through no fault of their own. This is why through direct action and fundraising we stand in solidarity with migrants. We believe no human is illegal .” (photos © Mike Kear)
