Having come away from today's foreign office meeting, I reflect upon one thing 'where is the value in human life?' Since this peace memorandum was signed, which is a true glimmer of hope for a resolution, there have been but whispers of innocent human life anywhere. And whilst we as a family and campaign may have tunnel vision on what's important, does it not strike you that there isn't more mention of innocent peoples lives and their release as part of these peace deals, if peace is the aim it starts at human level. It also highlighted to importance of keeping Craig and Lindsays name prominent and on the lips of people who can make a difference, people who are at the table, negotiating peace. 

We are still so desperately worried for them both as we are being told they still remain on hunger strike, they are still cut off from family via phone calls, the only glimmer of joy they get is when they see one another, something we're told has happened almost weekly. Without any way to truly know if they're ok we have to rely on fractured information.But it is in these moments when we have to be strong, willing and ready to continue the good fight, the one for basic humanity, to continue pushing for something as small as a phone call, which makes the world of difference to them and to us. 

We will continue pushing, providing updates as much as we can but I want to end on a thank you. Without risk of sounding like a broken record. The support we get through petition signatures, GoFundMe donations and public pressure is unexplainable. So truly, thank you all.

Joe
