We’re losing Laila Soueif very soon if Alaa Abd El Fattah is not released. That’s the reality. As groups and individuals we have a very short window to act and get both egy and uk government to act NOW . Release Alaa and give this woman a chance to live.

Richard D Boyle was denied the right to use a public interest defence in whistleblower laws. The government must fix our broken whistleblower protection laws, and pass a media freedom act.

Hours — not weeks or even days — to save Laila Soueif, the extraordinary heroic mother who is over 240 days into her hunger strike to free her son, and my friend, Alaa Abd el-Fattah. Look at the image. Understand what is at stake. #FreeAlaa

The attacks on the journalists in LA are troubling not only for their sake, but for ours. Attacks on the press are attacks on all of us. Press freedom is not a luxury for peacetime.
