Protest against war criminal Rajapakse at Oxford union

Reposter | 01.12.2010 01:12 | Oxford

Mahinda Rajapakse is in the UK to address Oxford Union on Thursday 2nd December at 6pm.

British Tamils and supporters against war crimes need to make a firm stand against Rajapakse’s visit to the UK and his address at Oxford Union!


DATE: Thursday, 2nd December

TIME: 4pm-7pm

ADDRESS: The Oxford Union, Frewin Court, Oxford, OX1 3JB (See Map below)

Please do not let Rajapakse whitewash the cost of the war and ongoing failure to uphold human rights, rule of law and freedom of expression in Sri Lanka.

What YOU need to do:

· Inform all students of Oxford University, past students and members of student societies at other universities to petition against the speech of an alleged war criminal at one of the country’s most prestigious scholastic establishment

· If you have any contacts within the Oxford area please urge them to raise awareness of Sri Lanka’s human rights record and war crimes charges

· Make sure you attend the protest to make a stand against the speech at Oxford Union

· Inform all your friends, family, relatives and supporters against war crimes to take action

· Spread the word through social networks, blogs and personal contacts

Thank you.
