MOTION AGREED: The London Assembly has today called on the Mayor to write to the Secretary of State calling for the decision to grant planning permission for a new Chinese Embassy near the Tower of London to be reversed. www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/w...

"The IRGC is a state-sponsored terrorist organisation – it's time for the Government to formally recognise that fact.

"The threat to British citizens, both at home and abroad, is very real indeed. The IRGC have already targeted our military installations and residential areas in the Middle East – residential areas where British people live. It's time to send a strong signal that the UK won't stand for it.

"I hope that the Mayor respects the democratic will of the London Assembly and writes to the Prime Minister, urging him to proscribe this despicable group of Iran-backed terrorists.”

MOTION AGREED: The London Assembly formally requests that the Mayor of London write to the Prime Minister, urging the immediate proscription of the IRGC under the Terrorism Act 2000. www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/w...

““The London Assembly has always stood with the Iranian people in the face of brutality meted out against them by their oppressive Government”. 

“We welcome that Iran is no longer under the rule of Ayatollah Khamenei and hope that the people of Iran will be empowered to fully grasp the opportunities for their nation which lie ahead.“

“Iran is a beautiful country where hope can now reign as a better future beckons without repressive violence and state abuse.” 

“This is the hope of the London Assembly and we will stand shoulder to shoulder with Iranians both here and around the World as we move forward."

MOTION AGREED: London Assembly Members are supportive of a 'new chapter' for Iran. www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/w...
