Erdogan, Time To Go

Downing St, London, UK. 15th May 2018



 

 Erdogan was in the UK and visiting Theresa May and Kurds had been protesting all day making their

 views clear. 'Dictator Murderer Torturer You and Not Welcome Here!'

 THe Kurdistan Solidarity Campaign placard shows him in bright red as a terrorist

 Police were out in force

 but the protest was fairly subdued while I was there, and soon began to leave, having started over 6 hours before

 

 There were some arguments with police who were stopping them walking down the road

 

 and speeches opposite Downing St

 

 Many carried Ocalan flags
     
 A man in a Kurdistan costume

 

 

 Many of those protesting were from Day-Mer Turkish & Kurdish Community cnetre in north London

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tamam, meaning 'OK, go then!' was the response of many when Erdogan said "When the Turkish people want me to, I will go"
