(Clearwisdom.net) On November 17th 2007, an activity was held in Leeds in northern England to let people know about the human rights abuses that Falun Gong practitioners are suffering at the hands of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Many passers by signed a petition to show their support for an end to the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. Many also showed interest in the Falun Gong exercises and asked for information on free classes.

People talk with practitioners to find out more and some had a go at doing the Falun Gong exercises

A lady from Vietnam who has been living in Leeds for more than twenty years was happy to finally get the opportunity to withdraw from the Communist Party in the form of a public statement. One girl told us that a few months ago she saw Falun Gong practitioners holding a similar activity and decided to raise awareness about the persecution against Falun Gong in her own school.

A Hungarian gentleman who had suffered persecution from the Communist Party, sent blessings to Falun Gong practitioners for their determination in calling for justice and standing out in cold weather to raise awareness. Practitioners gave him the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party DVD and Falun Gong informational material.
