British law makers are there to break the very law they make
Some of the British elected parliamentarians are being accused of disrespecting and violating the very same Terrorism Act they brought to halt citizens subscribing to the international terrorist activities in the UK. Five members belonging to cross parties in the House of Commons have knowingly attended the Pongu Thamil festival of the LTTE in the South London on 12 July 2008.
The LTTE is a proscribed outfit under the British Terrorism Act and even glorifying its cause is defined in the act as a terrorist act.
The British parliamentarians knowingly attended the function and did not raise their displeasure when the most wanted terrorist leader Pirabakaran’s pictures were carried by the hardcore LTTE activists.
The parliamentarians who undermined the British terrorism laws and glorified the proscribed LTTE are as follows:
Virendra Sharma MP (Labour). He represents Ealing and Southall constituency. He is the Chairman of the pro LTTE All Party Parliamentary Group for Tamils (Tigers) in the parliament.
Ed Davy MP (Liberal Democrat). He represents Kingston and Surbiton. A hardcore LTTE supporter.
Andrew Pelling MP (Conservatives).He represents Croydon Central constituency.
Siobhan McDonnagh MP ( Labour). She represents Mitcham and Morden.
Dawn Butler MP (Labour). She represents Brent South.
When the law makers blatantly violate the terrorism laws questions are being asked as to how citizens of the country could be vigilant on the activities of the terrorists.
Of the 300,000 Tamil population in the UK, only about 8,000 had attended the LTTE function. The remainder of the 10,000 attended were said to be specially ferried from the mainland Europe to swell the number.
Comments
As was previously stated,
As was previously stated, fewer than 10 people held signs with Pirabakaran's photo and they were promptly seen to by the organisers, who told them not to. At any time, have you ever heard these MPs glorify the LTTE's activities? Calling these people "hardcore" LTTE supporters is surprisingly low, even for you.
Are you also trying to imply that the LTTE paid for 10,000 people to be transported from Europe into London, for a single event? Just imagine the costs and logistics involved with transporting so many people for one day! It's just such an utterly ridiculous idea, that I'm not even going to bother spending more time responding to it.
Mr Jayadevan, you have sunk very, very low to have to resort to petty mud slinging. You are tarnishing the reputation of hard working MPs, who have done more for the Tamil community here than you ever have.
