Hjælp med at stoppe deportation af den danske fredsaktivist Ulla Røder

 

Skriv straks til den engelske indenrigsmininister

 

Jeg har ï dag modtaget nedenstående  mail fra David Mackinzie, Trident Ploughshares.

Ulla Røder risikerer at blive udvist.

Ulla beder om, at vi skriver så mange breve som muligt - så hurtigt som muligt

til Home Secretary  David Blunkett i London.

 

Send venligst mailen videre til folk ,som kunne have interesse i sagen.

 

I betragtning af,

- at den skotske domstol Greenock Sheriff Court tidligere har fundet Ula Røders ikke-voldelige aktioner rigtige i.h.t. til den Internationale Domstols afgørelse d. d. 8 juli 1996, hvor det blev fastslået, at brug såvel som trussel med atomvåben strider mod internationale love

 

-at hun for nylig har fået "Den alternative Nobelpris",

 

- og at den dom, hun har fået, kun er på 3 måneders fængsel,

 

 findes det helt urimeligt, at hun muligvis skal udvises.

Dear Grete,

Ulla has asked me to contact you to ask you to write to our Home Secretary

to ask him to reject the recommendation to deport her from the UK

 

Thanks you for your help in this.

Love

David

Dear Mr. Blunkett

 

Urgent  threatened Deportation of Ulla Roder

 

On 5th October peace activist Ulla Roder was sentenced in Dumbarton Sheriff

court in Scotland on six counts relating to nonviolent peace activism. As

well as imposing a three month prison sentence Sheriff Fitzsimmons stated

that he would recommend to you that she be deported.

 

I am writing to ask you to reject the Sheriff's recommendation. We

understand that deportation from the UK is normally reserved for

perpetrators of serious offences, such as drug smuggling convictions that

have a three_year jail sentence. Its use in Ulla's case is completely

disproportionate. She is a thoroughly peaceful and nonviolent campaigner

and everyone accepts that she will harm no_one. Her peace actions have all

been carried out with meticulous regard for her own and other's safety.

 

Ulla is a Danish Citizen and it is particularly inappropriate to raise the

threat of deportation of a peaceful activist within the borders of the

European Union, and between two countries respecting the European

Convention on Human rights.  Both the Union and the Convention are, of

course, underpinned by similar ideals that strongly defend the right to

protest.  

 

Ulla's contribution to the peace movement in Europe has been considerable.

She is an inspiration to us all and her commitment has convinced many more

people that there is something every responsible citizen can do to make the

world a better and safer place.

 

Your help in this matter is much appreciated.
