Tibetans Walk Backwards for Human Rights

Westminster, London. Sat 7 Dec 2013

 

 
 The Tibetans marched across the road, then outside Parliament they turned around and started to walk backwards

 in a long line

 

 They walked backwards past the Houses of Parliament

 

 

 

 

 

 

 and into Parliament St

 
 
 

 
      
The up Whitehall as far as Downing St 

Where a noisy rally began on Whitehall calling on the UK government to 'Stand Up for Tibet' 

and to stop brushing the terrible human rights abuses there under the table because  

mentioning them might damage business with China 

 

 

 

Over 130 Tibetans have set fire to themselves in desperate protests since the start of 2009. 

The Chinese torture and prosecute the families and friend of those who self-immolate in an attempt to stop the protests
