(Clearwisdom.net) On March 10, 2005, U.K. Member of Parliament John
Robinson spoke in the British Parliament on behalf of over fifteen thousand
people in the U.K. who signed a petition. The petition called for the rescue of
Falun Gong practitioners who are being persecuted in China, including relatives
of Falun Gong practitioners living in the U.K.
After being told about the persecution against Falun Gong in China by a
practitioner in his electoral district, Mr. Robinson expressed his condemnation.
He met a number of U.K. practitioners who had personally suffered violations of
human rights in China. He also discussed with the practitioners in his electoral
district about the petition for rescuing Falun Gong practitioners in China.
Mr. Robinson said, "They [Falun Gong practitioners] are put in
jail only for their belief, which is harmless to others. It is wrong to
persecute them. This is actually not just an issue of Falun Gong practitioner's
rights. It's about everybody's rights. Everyone has the right to seek justice
and impartiality. From this point on, I'm glad to be taking part in this. I feel
that I must do something about this."
"Today, the signature collecting for this petition is completed.
However, we will never stop calling on the public to condemn this brutal
persecution."
