Hi Babies! This month The Limpet is raising awareness of Police-Brutality and encouraging you to stand up and challenge it. Please share the petitions and spread the word. Spend a few minutes working for peace and justice.
Nature, Democracy and Free Speech, brought to you by An Brennigenn (The Limpet), from a far-flung Cornish rock.

FREE SPEECH
Whilst Prince Charles, Duke of Cornwall and David Camoron, Prime Minister of Britain rush to ingratiate themselves with the barbaric and totalitarian Saudi regime, terrified of losing Britain’s fat arms-deal with one of the World’s most brutal and unjust dictatorships, a citizen of Saudi Arabia is being repeatedly flogged in public – his crime? Daring to promote Free Speech and discussion in a closed society. Please help him.
