The stunt is part of The World Can’t Wait – Your Voice Against Poverty Campaign, which will be followed by a huge rally in Westminster on Saturday 2nd June, prior to the G8 Summit which starts in Germany on 6th June.
Phone message to Tony Blair
"I wanted to leave a message to world leaders to say sort out your act around HIV and AIDS. There are more than five million people who are living with HIV/AIDS in the world, who do not have access to the vital medicines to keep them alive. This is shameful. As the clock ticks, peoples' lives are lost. The World Can’t Wait - World leaders must act now. "
100,000 people in the UK have already taken action in support of the campaign.
