We invite you to come to support our struggle for freedom, human rights and justice for the Libyan people.

The protest outside the Libyan Embassy is open to all – Libyans, British, people from all over the world who want to stand up and defend human rights of those living under oppressive regimes. The BLSC calls on the British Government to dissolve the Memorandum of Understanding between Britain and Libya, to demand the freedom of political prisoners held without trial and to demand the end of torture.

We demand the British Government to monitor Gaddafi’s regime and to stop him using violence against the Libyan people, and to respect Geneva Convention on Human Rights.
