The United Campaign against Police Violence would like to encourage all our supporters to come along to this vigil for Ian Tomlinson on Tuesday. It has been called by the Ian Tomlinson Family Campaign.

The Ian Tomlinson Family Campaign said:
"Ian died in tragic circumstances, an 'innocent passerby' trying to get home, after a police assault at the G20 protests on April 1st 2009.Eight months on, our family are preparing for our first Christmas without him and still waiting for justice.
"We have been grateful for public support this year and would like an opportunity to hold this public memorial gathering to remember Ian, with our friends and supporters around us.We ask that those who attend please wear black as a mark of respect and remember that this is peaceful event.
"PLEASE LET US KNOW IF YOU ARE COMING so we can estimate numbers and please send messages of support - a number of these will be read out at the vigil.

A day doesn't go by when this unending procrastination re charging the cops complicit in murderous attacks on Ian Tomlinson - its now 10 full months of waitnig. Is there no way to mount some kind of initiative to try and get some life back into play so that there is some accountability. I would be happy to put what energiess I have in support of others waAntin some movement. Heaven alone knows how his family relations are stomaching the indifference.
