Dear Friends, Supporters and Enemies, This is to let you know that 1. there was a most interesting article about McKenzie Friends in the BBC today: http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-29883819 with the title: "Is having a 'friend' for your day in court a good thing?" It linked to our website www.mckenzie-friends.co.uk and thus we had not only many more visits to the site, but also many more signers of this petition!!! 2. We have seen the first six of twelve MEPs today in Brussels with an amazing quality of interest and support: real, constructive and anything but flaky! 3. The essence of my presentation tomorrow will be: ** UK mothers are not safe abroad, as UK authorities take their children even in territories of other jurisdictions; ** foreign mothers are not safe in the UK: they risk their kids being taken even if they just come for a holiday or a training course, as Alessandra Pacchieri in the forced cesarian: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2605819/Daughter-Italian-woman-forced-C-section-UK-adopted.html ** the UK violates human rights articles 6 (fair trail), 8 (right to family life) and 10 (freedom of expression) on a regular and systematic basis. Who will ensure that these human rights are enforced in the UK??? Watch this space! From Brussels with Love, Sabine and Mary!
