Liberal Burblings

Akmal Shaikh, a Briton from North London, is facing execution in China on 29th December. He has a long history of mental instability and has suspected bipolar disorder. He was apparently duped by some criminals into carrying a suitcase which contained drugs. I have just sent an email to Gordon Brown, via the Downing Street website, asking him to intervene on Mr Shaikh’s behalf. I urge you to do the same.

Today the Foreign Office has told Amnesty International that the UK Government and Prime Minister Gordon Brown will be using the next few days to “renew and intensify” UK Government appeals to the Chinese authorities for clemency in Akmal Shaikh’s case
