20th April 2016 – Update
Dear supporters
I would like if I may provide you with a brief update on the campaign.
On the 16th April we marched from Gower street to Trafalgar Square on the anti-austerity March. It was quite a day, and like last year there was a great response. I met with many wonderful people along the route who had travelled from all around the country to offer their support. It was estimated that there could have been as many as 150,000 people attended the march.

I will keep you updated on all progress relating to the legal action now being taken regarding my brother David’s case (see below).
