Lord Mark McInnes: conservative member of the House of Lords in the United Kingdom\u00a0announced his support for the Iranian\u2019s Gathering in Paris<\/a><\/p>\n Mark McInnes<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Hello I\u2019m Mark McInnes I\u2019m a conservative member of the House of Lords in the United Kingdom and I\u2019m delighted to be able to do this in short interview today. I\u2019ve been very concerned over the previous 6 months about the reaction from the regime in Iran to the Peaceful protest that been taken place since December. I think those protests are quite different from any that was seen before with protester really about people who are suffering economically under the regime. the protests are very different in terms of the people who protest. Ordinary workers now in Iran are in a third of the official poverty line. people are really suffering, pensioners are losing their savings and the people of Iran had enough of this undemocratic clerical regime and it\u2019s very important now that across Europe and across the wider world we support those with peacefully protesting and a ensure that they are not facing extrajudicial measures because Amnesty International reports said, thousands of political prisoners have suffered in the past three decades in Iran from extrajudicial, reprisals, imprisonment and indeed execution and if we look back to what happened in 1988 and the Massacre 1988 it\u2019s important to the United Nations has a full independent investigation into the awful human rights abuses and massacres took place in 1988. I think you\u2019ll be an opportunity to rise all these points as a wonderful Gathering that we look forward to in Paris on the 30th of June. I\u2019ll be bringing with me and number of other parliamentarians the United Kingdom and I think it\u2019s going to be a wonderful opportunity for people to hear Madame Rajavi<\/a>\u2018s\u00a0 10-point plane for Democracy in Iran something that we all want to see.<\/p>\n Madame Rajavi\u2019s\u00a0 10-point plane for Democracy in Iran<\/p>\n
