Action Taken

gr was

with

аз

a growing sense of shock, horror and disbelief, that we watched on the BBC Worldservice News, the plight of 24 Eldrly Hongkong war widows. THESE poor woman

whose husbands payed the ultimate price, their lives, for Britain in World War II are being denied British Passports. Passports which are bring given to the lysiness

implare

to

infacceate

Sector in thongkong.

This is totally unjust and inhumane, and we you

on their behalf and give them both peace of mind- and their just deserts - in their

utors by granting them

British passports.

Yours Sinarely,

Maureen Downey:
