Demo in London Today

Around 3000 people turned up for the demo outside the Iranian embassy in London today to mark the 10th anniversary of the student uprising in 1999. My warmest thanks to all the non-Iranians who also turned up in solidarity with the courageous people of Iran. I had to leave before the demo finished for another interview at Al-Jazeera English.

Here are some of the footage from the bravehearts in Iran who once again took to the streets, in different parts of the cities today. Despite all the brutal repression, these fearless men and women have risked their lives for freedom again and again. How can anyone not admire their courage?

Here they are shouting Mojtaba [Reference to the Supreme Leader's son who is the main engineer of the coup and wants to be the next Supreme Leader] 'Mojtaba You will Never be the Supreme Leader'
