A group of British Tamils and British people are walking all the way from Manchester to London to highlight their call to the British Government to act on Sri Lankan war crimes and help to end an ongoing genocide of Tamils in hidden and various forms in northern Sri Lanka.
The walk began in Piccadilly Gardens in the centre of Manchester last Saturday (29th of october) and has visited Congleton, Stoke-on-Trent, Cannock, Birmingham & Coventry. They are still be visit Milton Keynes, St. Albans and will finish at No 10 ,Downing Street, London on Monday, November 07th (see below). They have unveiled stalls in all the major cities during the walk. The walk currently has five permanent volunteers with many more joining as part walkers along the route.
Their specific demands are:

3) Hold a UN referendum to allow Tamils to vote and decide upon their future governance.
