0:02:56 > 0:03:00That's a good question. But don't worry, there's plenty of time.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02You're so busy trying to get the weans that cannae speak English

0:03:02 > 0:03:05to pass their exams, you're forgetting about the others.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10round here as it is without dumping half the world on us.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15These asylum seekers don't even come from civilised countries.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30I'm just saying there's a lot of media scare stories, you know?

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Welcome to Drumchapel High.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17Amal here is from Somalia, via London.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20Who would like to show us on the map where Somalia is?

0:04:20 > 0:04:23- Jennifer?- No, thanks.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25- What do you mean? - Sir, I cannae.- Why?

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Africa, that's right. Thank you, Roza.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48Which means that Amal, like many of you, has come a long way to be here.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51So let's give her a big warm Drumchapel High welcome.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56OK, everybody.

0:04:56 > 0:05:02Get your pens and paper out, because I, you, we, he, she, it and they

0:05:11 > 0:05:13- Are you in the high flats?- Mm-hm.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17That's where they put most of us. And you came to London first?

0:05:17 > 0:05:18- Mm.- Cool, us too.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21My mum, OK, she sees Scotland on the TV and it was snowing

0:05:21 > 0:05:24and she's like, "Imagine if they take us there!"

0:05:24 > 0:05:27And then, like, the next day, the guy at the hotel was like,

0:05:27 > 0:05:28"You're going to Scotland."

0:05:28 > 0:05:32And she's just like, freaking out, like, "What? Really?"

0:05:32 > 0:05:34How's your flat?

0:05:34 > 0:05:36We hardly have anything.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38What are you missing?

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Music. Definitely.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10- I was only playing.- What?!

0:11:36 > 0:11:38- they'll be sent back to Kosovo. - By who?

0:11:39 > 0:11:42By the Home Office. The Government.

0:12:12 > 0:12:13a place called Yarl's Wood in England.

0:12:13 > 0:12:17- England! As if it wisnae bad enough. - Very good, Jennifer.

0:12:17 > 0:12:21They're going to be detained there until they're flown back to Kosovo.

0:12:27 > 0:12:31I'm sorry, I'm afraid there's not much else we can do.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55- Right.- Yes, right. This is wrong.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58I'm not going to carry on as if nothing has happened.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04- And we are, too.- What?

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Aye, we all are.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27- Et tu, Elvis?- Aye.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44If we want to get her back, we're going to have to be proactive.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Get the community involved or something.

0:13:46 > 0:13:47Nobody round here's going to help.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50- Why are you saying that?- Folk have got enough to worry about.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54- Come off it, most folk don't want them here.- Jennifer!

0:13:54 > 0:13:57I'm just saying, that's how it is, but. It's not my opinion.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04Ho. This isn't a library.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07- Is it not? I didn't realise. - You going to buy that?

0:14:07 > 0:14:09- Yeah, what about it?- And you?

0:14:09 > 0:14:12- Mind your own business, we're not criminals.- Leave it, Emma.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29- It's a petition.- What's a petition? - It's how we get things done.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31It's a list of names of people that agree with us.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33What use is that? We need to fight.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35There must be a reason why they were removed.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37- Home Office obviously thinks it's safe for them.- See?

0:14:37 > 0:14:39- People don't want us here. - I never said that.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Look, Agnesa was my friend and I'm a Glaswegian.

0:14:41 > 0:14:45There are people here who care about you and people who have signed this.

0:14:45 > 0:14:47I just don't get it. Why would she not want to go home?

0:14:47 > 0:14:50- It's not safe there.- Jennifer. - What? It's a free country.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53That's right, it's a free country, this is a democracy.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55We're all entitled to an opinion,

0:14:55 > 0:14:58we're all entitled to express that opinion.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Maybe you could do me a one-pager

0:15:00 > 0:15:03on what it means to live in a democracy.

0:15:03 > 0:15:07Emma has suggested the petition. What's your suggestion?

0:15:08 > 0:15:11What's your suggestion? Roza?

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Amal? Ewelina? Anybody? Anybody?

0:18:34 > 0:18:37When was the last time you were scared?

0:18:38 > 0:18:40- Don't know.- What?

0:19:29 > 0:19:32- Listen, we're talking to the press, to the media.- 'Really? The press?'

0:19:32 > 0:19:36Yeah, the press, so you have to tell us exactly what happened,

0:19:36 > 0:19:37do you understand?

0:19:37 > 0:19:39'Well...

0:19:46 > 0:19:50'like 6am, or something. And they came right into my bedroom

0:19:50 > 0:19:53'and told me to get up and get dressed. My mum was crying

0:19:53 > 0:19:56'and my dad was yelling, and they put him in handcuffs.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59'I tried to help Mum, and they told me if I went near her,

0:19:59 > 0:20:01'they would just put me in a different van.'

0:20:01 > 0:20:04So, you're all together now?

0:20:04 > 0:20:06Agnesa? Agnesa?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08'Yeah, sorry.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21'They're gone.'

0:20:21 > 0:20:24We're going to do everything we can to get you out, OK?

0:20:24 > 0:20:26- 'What about my exams?'- Eh?

0:20:26 > 0:20:29'I started my application for college, Mr Girvan.'

0:20:29 > 0:20:31That's good, that's really good.

0:20:31 > 0:20:35Agnesa. Agnesa, it's Elvis. I miss you.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38My mornings are so dull without you here.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41'Oh, my God, Elvis, you never give up.'

0:20:41 > 0:20:44Agnesa, you've got to be strong, OK? We promise we won't leave you there.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03She sounded scared.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07# ..Another roadblock in our way

0:21:09 > 0:21:14# But if we go, we go together

0:21:17 > 0:21:21# Our hands are tied here if we stay

0:21:22 > 0:21:26# Oh, we said our dreams would carry us

0:21:26 > 0:21:29# And if they don't fly we will run

0:21:29 > 0:21:33# Now we push right past to find out

0:21:33 > 0:21:37# How to win what they all lost

0:21:41 > 0:21:43# We know now we want more

0:21:43 > 0:21:45# Oh, ah

0:21:45 > 0:21:47# Oh, ah

0:21:47 > 0:21:50# A life worth fighting for

0:21:53 > 0:21:57# So let them say we won't do better

0:21:58 > 0:22:02# Lay out the rules that we can't break

0:22:05 > 0:22:08# They wanna sit and watch you wither

0:22:12 > 0:22:17# Their legacy's too hard to take

0:22:17 > 0:22:20# Oh, we said our dreams will carry us

0:22:20 > 0:22:23# And if they don't fly we will run

0:23:01 > 0:23:02# Oh, ah. #

0:23:04 > 0:23:08I understand that, but you have kidnapped and imprisoned

0:23:08 > 0:23:11one of my pupils, and I want to know when you plan to force her

0:23:11 > 0:23:15onto a plane and dump her in a dangerous country

0:23:15 > 0:23:18where her safety and her future cannot be guaranteed.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23No, I keep telling you, I'm not a solicitor, I am her teacher

0:23:23 > 0:23:26and I think I have the right to know when a pupil of mine....

0:23:28 > 0:23:30Damn it!

0:23:31 > 0:23:34SHE KNOCKS SOFTLY

0:23:34 > 0:23:36What do you want?

0:23:36 > 0:23:38I want to speak to Mr Girvan.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Jennifer. How can I help?

0:23:45 > 0:23:46Here's that essay.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Oh. I forgot about that.

0:23:50 > 0:23:51Yeah.

0:23:53 > 0:23:54Very good.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Look underneath.

0:24:02 > 0:24:04Well...

0:24:06 > 0:24:10There must be a couple of hundred signatures there. What's going on?

0:24:12 > 0:24:13I was walking and it hit me.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18How would I feel if the police came and locked up my family?

0:24:18 > 0:24:21I'd have to do something. Fight.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26I want to help, I do. But I just think, who the hell's going to

0:24:26 > 0:24:29listen to a bunch of wee lassies from Drumchapel?

0:24:30 > 0:24:32SHE SNIFFS

0:24:32 > 0:24:34What's wrong?

0:24:36 > 0:24:37What is it?

0:24:39 > 0:24:42Oh, come off it! Surely me offering to help isn't that upsetting?

0:24:42 > 0:24:44I'm sorry.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Well, what's wrong?

0:24:52 > 0:24:55We found out our claim has been rejected, too.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59It won't be too long for us.

0:25:02 > 0:25:03I'm sorry, Roza.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Jennifer, you've been protesting all your life.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12You just never had a good outlet until now.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16So if you want to help, get out there and do it.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24INDISTINCT CHATTER

0:25:36 > 0:25:37How did you manage this?

0:25:42 > 0:25:44All right, everyone, quiet.

0:25:44 > 0:25:45CHATTER CONTINUES

0:25:45 > 0:25:47Come on, bring it down.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48Quiet!

0:25:48 > 0:25:51CHATTER CEASES

0:25:51 > 0:25:54All right, everybody. Thanks for coming. We wanted to bring yous

0:25:54 > 0:25:57all here because something's been happening and it's not right,

0:25:57 > 0:25:59and we need to do something about it.

0:25:59 > 0:26:04This is Roza. She's an Iraqi Kurd but she's all right.

0:26:04 > 0:26:07OK, first, thank you all for being here.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11- Going to speak up, hen!- Oh, sorry. Thank you all for being here.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14We just wanted to say that what this Government behaves is doing wrong.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16- Eh?- The dawn raids.

0:26:16 > 0:26:19The Home Office is taking asylum-seeking families from home

0:26:19 > 0:26:22- and deporting them. WOMAN:- Aye, and they're not doing it fast enough.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26We know that some people around here think it better that we hadn't come

0:26:26 > 0:26:30but my uncles and grandfather were shot by regime in Iraq.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33My family, we came here, because my father's life was in danger.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36- He was teacher, but here he cannot work.- I have a question.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39Do you think anyone should be allowed to come and live here?

0:26:39 > 0:26:41If they live in trouble, yes.

0:26:41 > 0:26:46- What if they're a criminal?- Yes, also then.- A murderer? A rapist?

0:26:46 > 0:26:48Well, no. No.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49No, OK, so we're all agreed,

0:26:49 > 0:26:52we cannae just have an indiscriminate open border.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54We need rules and regulations

0:26:54 > 0:26:57and we need people to manage those rules, to man our borders.

0:26:57 > 0:27:00We're not talking about murderers, criminals or rapists.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04We're talking about kids here. We're talking about students at my school.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06I understand that, Euan.

0:27:06 > 0:27:10So, what you're saying is, people with kids should be allowed to stay,

0:27:10 > 0:27:12- so long as they're not criminals? - No, you don't understand.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14It's more complicated than that.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17And what about folk having weans just so they can get a passport?

0:27:17 > 0:27:20What will that lead to? Happy families? I don't think so.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23My family are good people and so are Agnesa's.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25We fled for fear of our lives.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27Look, you shouldn't be able to come into someone's house

0:27:27 > 0:27:30in the middle of the night and drag them away. It's wrong.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33Well, what time of day should they come, then, darling? Should they

0:27:33 > 0:27:37make a wee, convenient appointment that fits their schedule(?)

0:27:37 > 0:27:40Listen, I like you girls, but you're so naive it's a joke.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43Maybe it was naive to think that people would want to help us.

0:27:43 > 0:27:48But that's what you do, isn't it? When you're scared you ask for help.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51Well, we're scared. We're scared because the Home Office

0:27:51 > 0:27:55is coming in the middle of the night to take people like us away.

0:27:55 > 0:27:58And we're scared because if we get sent back to where we come from...

0:27:58 > 0:28:01we don't know what will happen to us.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04We're scared because every day we go to school and we say goodbye

0:28:04 > 0:28:07to our friends, we don't know if it will be for the last time.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12We're a part of this community, too.

0:28:12 > 0:28:16And we need your help. Because we're under attack and we need your help

0:28:16 > 0:28:18because we can't defend ourselves alone.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22- That was fucking brilliant. - Well, what about...?

0:28:22 > 0:28:25I think you've made your feelings clear enough, Kenny.

0:28:25 > 0:28:27Now it's somebody else's turn.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30I didn't come here to be told our Government doesn't know

0:28:30 > 0:28:33how to run the country. I could have told you that myself.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35What I want to know is,

0:28:35 > 0:28:39what exactly it is you think we can do about it, girls?

0:28:53 > 0:28:56PHONE RINGS

0:28:56 > 0:28:59They're here. Looks like they're going into to your flats, Jean.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03Aye, got it.

0:29:09 > 0:29:11PHONE RINGS

0:29:14 > 0:29:15Hello, Jean. I'm up, I'm up.

0:29:32 > 0:29:35- Can you move out of the way, please? - Eddie.

0:29:35 > 0:29:38Wee Eddie. You were in one of my classes at school, aye?

0:29:38 > 0:29:41Aye, Mr Girvan. Listen, no disrespect, but you're going to

0:29:41 > 0:29:44- need to move out the way, we've got a job to do.- A job? Aye.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46And what kind of job is that, eh?

0:29:46 > 0:29:49Helping them to drag weans out their beds.

0:29:49 > 0:29:51What kind of job is that, Eddie?

0:29:51 > 0:29:55They're breaking the law. Time to move, please, Mr Girvan.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07All right, then.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32Stand away from the door!

0:30:46 > 0:30:50Flat is empty. Repeat, flat is clear.

0:30:58 > 0:31:01Mission accomplished. Same time tomorrow?

0:31:01 > 0:31:02Aye.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45'They were acting in response to a spate of dawn raids

0:33:48 > 0:33:50the Home Office is going to pull us out of our beds

0:33:50 > 0:33:53in the middle of the night and this for us means death.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55But the Home Office says it's safe to return Agnesa home.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58This is her home now. It's not safe in Kosovo.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01She's a Glasgow girl. We all are.

0:34:01 > 0:34:03The Glasgow Girls, I like that.

0:34:03 > 0:34:06Cheers, girls, and good luck.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09You know, the United Nations had peacekeepers in Kosovo

0:34:09 > 0:34:11and as far as I'm aware, they still do.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13If the situation there is safe,

0:34:13 > 0:34:15why do they need peacekeepers on the ground?

0:34:15 > 0:34:17Now, that's a question worth asking.

0:34:23 > 0:34:25DOOR OPENS

0:34:26 > 0:34:28It's from the Home Office.

0:34:35 > 0:34:38"Thank you for your letter about Mr Murselaj and family.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41"You have stated that there is a real risk if this family return to Kosovo

0:34:41 > 0:34:43"they would face persecution.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46"As Mr Murselaj and his family are from the Peje region,

0:34:46 > 0:34:49"I am satisfied that there are no substantial grounds for believing

0:34:49 > 0:34:52- "that this family would be at risk on return."- Shit.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57"The Murselaj family has exhausted all their appeal rights

0:34:57 > 0:34:59"and have no right to remain in the United Kingdom."

0:34:59 > 0:35:03A plane's been chartered to take them back to Kosovo.

0:37:06 > 0:37:10# Running over the same old ground

0:37:10 > 0:37:12# What have we found?

0:37:12 > 0:37:15# The same old fears

0:37:15 > 0:37:18# Wish you were here... #

0:37:25 > 0:37:27Mum.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10I've been looking into something.

0:38:10 > 0:38:13We've been worried about you. Ewelina's a wreck.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16The letter, Jennifer, from the Home Office, there's something in it.

0:38:18 > 0:38:21"I can tell you now that this family's removal will only be

0:38:21 > 0:38:23"effected once the United Nation's mission in Kosovo

0:38:23 > 0:38:26- "has accepted the removal." - But that's just standard, innit?

0:38:26 > 0:38:31Yeah, but... Wait, look at this. Come here.

0:38:38 > 0:38:40"The United Nations believes

0:38:40 > 0:38:43"that despite the fact the security situation in Kosovo has improved,

0:38:43 > 0:38:46"Roma families are still at risk of persecution."

0:38:46 > 0:38:48Look, even though the war is over,

0:38:48 > 0:38:51there has still been revenge attacks against Roma families.

0:38:51 > 0:38:54The United Nations Refugee Agency agrees with us.

0:38:54 > 0:38:58- Roma families aren't safe there. - Where did you get that?

0:38:58 > 0:39:01It's on their bloody website, it's there in black and white.

0:39:01 > 0:39:04- Why hasn't the Home Office checked that?- Are you sure?

0:39:04 > 0:39:06It's all here.

0:39:10 > 0:39:12This is dynamite.

0:39:58 > 0:39:59She's coming back.

0:39:59 > 0:40:02THEY CHEER

0:41:16 > 0:41:19- There you are. - Hey, you made me jump.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21I wondered where you had gone.

0:41:26 > 0:41:28Good to be home?

0:41:30 > 0:41:33- So, it's home now, is it? - Yeah, it's home.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36And don't leave it again.

0:41:39 > 0:41:42What was it like when they said that you could go?

0:41:42 > 0:41:46Amazing. We were like, "Yeah, bye, then."

0:41:51 > 0:41:54It was hard saying bye to the other families, though.

0:41:55 > 0:41:58I made some good friends there.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03I got some good news whilst you was gone.

0:42:03 > 0:42:05Yeah, what is it?

0:42:05 > 0:42:08- PHONE RINGS Um...- Wait.

0:42:09 > 0:42:11Yeah?

0:42:15 > 0:42:18THEY GIGGLE

0:42:18 > 0:42:19Yeah.

0:42:22 > 0:42:25You know, Dad's buying a huge lock for the door tomorrow

0:42:25 > 0:42:27in case they're coming again.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30Maybe it would be handy for keeping Elvis out, too.

0:42:31 > 0:42:33They're not going to come again.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38They might.

0:42:42 > 0:42:45- So, tell me.- Hm?

0:42:45 > 0:42:48- Your good news, what's up? - Oh...it's nothing.

0:42:50 > 0:42:51Doesn't matter.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55It's just good to have you home.

0:42:55 > 0:42:57Come on.

0:43:06 > 0:43:09RADIO: 'All morning, we're talking about the Glasgow Girls,

0:43:09 > 0:43:11'a group of local girls from Drumchapel High

0:43:11 > 0:43:14'who are making headlines and taking on the Home Office.

0:43:14 > 0:43:16'And it seems they're going from strength to strength

0:43:16 > 0:43:19'with the news that they've been invited for a meeting

0:43:19 > 0:43:22'with the First Minister of Scotland himself, Jack McConnell.'

0:43:26 > 0:43:29I'm shitting myself and I don't care who knows it.

0:43:29 > 0:43:31THEY GIGGLE

0:43:38 > 0:43:43Girls. First Minister of Scotland, Jack McConnell, pleased to meet you.

0:43:44 > 0:43:49So, girls, let me just start by saying, you know,

0:43:49 > 0:43:52I agree with you. Kids that are living here happily,

0:43:52 > 0:43:55doing their exams, getting their education, should be left alone.

0:43:55 > 0:43:58So, you're going to help us, then?

0:43:58 > 0:44:03Well, what I will say is, you need to work out what your aims are.

0:44:03 > 0:44:06I, of course, have been very impressed with your campaign.

0:44:06 > 0:44:08You've been making a lot of noise,

0:44:08 > 0:44:11people have been listening and sitting up, taking notice.

0:44:12 > 0:44:16But what is it that you want? Hm?

0:44:18 > 0:44:20The dawn raids have to stop.

0:44:20 > 0:44:21We want an apology from the Government.

0:44:21 > 0:44:24And we want everyone who's been taken from our communities

0:44:24 > 0:44:27to be brought back, and no more deportation.

0:44:29 > 0:44:31Do you want my advice, girls?

0:44:32 > 0:44:36You have to figure out what it is you really, REALLY want.

0:44:37 > 0:44:41You've got to be realistic. I mean, it's wonderful to have ideals,

0:44:41 > 0:44:45but politics requires compromise and, well, an end to deportation,

0:44:45 > 0:44:48it's, you know, it's just... it's never going to happen.

0:44:48 > 0:44:51So, what, you're not going to do anything?

0:44:59 > 0:45:01I, personally, am going to be calling for a protocol.

0:45:01 > 0:45:05- What's a protocol? - A protocol's a set of changes,

0:45:05 > 0:45:08a set of changes which mean the UK Government can't just

0:45:08 > 0:45:10grab families any more without telling us.

0:45:10 > 0:45:13And that doesn't mean that everyone can stay in every case,

0:45:13 > 0:45:17of course not. It just means handling the situation

0:45:17 > 0:45:20more sensitively. A more caring system.

0:45:22 > 0:45:25Does that sound like something you can get on board with?

0:45:28 > 0:45:31These changes, do you promise it?

0:45:33 > 0:45:36Promise to try.

0:45:36 > 0:45:39In politics, that's as good as it gets.
