March 12, 2019The meter is full: Sigríður Andersen out!
We demand the resignation of Sigríður Andersen, Minister of Justice, following the European Court of Human Rights' ruling that Sigríður's appointment of judges to Landsrétt was illegal. A Minister of Justice who undermines the judicial system must step down.
Come to Austurvöllur at 4:30 PM in front of the parliament building with a banana, a symbol of a banana republic where the interests of the upper class are always prioritized over the interests of the public and human rights. Do not throw the banana afterwards, eat it.

After the protest, another meeting will begin at Austurvöllur, protesting police violence against refugees and supporting the refugees' moderate demands for a hearing from the authorities, the right to work while their cases are being processed, and humane living conditions.
The demands of the refugees are: 1. No more deportations 2. Substantive review for all. Down with the Dublin Regulation 3. Right to work 4. Equal access to healthcare 5. Closure of the isolated refugee camps in Ásbrú
