Even though the Muslim celebration of Eid is over, the political Prisoners are still alone, in their prison cells separated from their relatives and loved ones. Let them know that they have not been forgotten them and send them a card or a letter.

Motion of Impeachment against Tony Blair


A group of MPs declared their intention to bring a motion of impeachment against the Prime Minister for High Crimes and Misdemeanours in relation to the invasion of Iraq. The charges are based on evidence presented in a report commissioned by Adam Price MP entitled A Case to Answer .
The report which is co-authored by academics Glen Rangwala and Dan Plesch presents evidence that the Prime Minister deliberately distorted the intelligence assessments available to him in order to deceive the public and Parliament over the case for war, and recommends that impeachment procedures are begun against the Prime Minister for this misconduct. In addition, the report maintains that Prime Minister's actions has destroyed the British government's reputation for honesty around the world; it has damaged and discredited the intelligence services; it has undermined the constitution by weakening cabinet government and has made a mockery of Parliament as representatives of the people.

Tony Blair has misled the people time and time again - this conduct cannot continue to go unchecked. The Members of Parliament backing this campaign believe it is their duty to do all they can to hold this Prime Minister to account in order to restore the people's faith in the democratic process.

DEMONSTRATION    Kuwaiti Families March in London for Guantanamo Prisoners

                                    Justice Sought for Loved Ones Still Held in Guantanamo
