England: November 30, 2009. (PCP) British Pakistani Christian Association have announced to hold protest procession against persecution of Christians in Pakistan. The marchers shall protest in front of Pakistan High Commission in London and 10 Downing Street to present memorandum to UK premier on December 19, 2009. MEP Jean Lambert and Rev. Kevin Logan have assured Pakistani Christian community to join in rally and support oppressed Pakistani nation suffering in Islamic Republic of Pakistan will join us at our demonstration at 10 Downing Street on the 19th December. Meanwhile Daily Telegraph reports that march on December 19, led by the British Pakistani Christian Association, is being supported by Reverend Kevin Logan, the former vicar at Christchurch in Accrington, in his Saturday Sermon column in the Lancashire Telegraph. And Salim Mulla, the chairman of the Lancashire Council of Mosques, condemned atrocities against ethnic minorities and backed the protest. He said: “It is shocking and not acceptable because everybody has the basic human right to live peacefully whether they are Hindu, Muslim, Sikh or Christian. “And I will support any action that is taken against persecution.” But Canon Chris Chivers, of Blackburn Cathedral, questioned the impact of marches on community relations in Britain. He said: “There are other ways of addressing these problems like getting in touch with the church leaders in Pakistan and asking them what we can do to help. “Marches tend to inflame tensions in our own communities and can become ideal propaganda material for parties like the BNP.”
