Join me at the Free Tibet march tomorrow
Posted on March 3, 2011Yesterday was the 10th of March – the 52nd anniversary of the 1959 Tibetan Uprising, in which over 80,000 Tibetans were killed by the Chinese authorities for daring to demand liberty an self-determination.
As a supporter of the Free Tibet movement, I’ll be helping to commemorate that event and support Tibetans’ demands for freedom at a march tomorrow, Saturday 12th March, from Victoria to the Chinese Embassy in Portland Place. The full details, times and route are online here. If you’d like to come along too, either I’ll see you there or comment below or tweet at me, and we can arrange to meet.
For those of you who haven’t been to such an event before, the Free Tibet movement is brilliant – a friendly alliance of Tibetan exiles, Buddhists, hippies and anti-Communist freedom activists pulling together in a common cause. If you’re free tomorrow, please come along.

Free Tibet? What are you on about? I think we have bigger things to worry about in the UK.

Personally I think we can care about both – the more free the world is, the better off we will be. I’m not asking you to give up money just a small amount of time.
