Latino support

In the UK there are more than 200,000 Latinos. Their main newspaper is Noticias (News) - read by 100,000 people. Every month it carries many articles on the Spanish and Portuguese world with a few comments on British politics.

The paper does not have a line on the UK general election, but in the current issue (June) the only piece that deals with June 7 calls on Latinos to support the Socialist Alliance - the only force that is against visas and immigration controls and the abuse of immigrant workers, for full citizenship to all immigrants, for the cancellation of the foreign debt.
