Speaking at the Milad conference, Aston Park, April 2013

Yesterday I spent a great morning at the Milad conference in Birmingham. Muslims from across the West Midlands came in their tens of thousands to celebrate the birth of the prophet Mohammed (PBUH).
 
I spoke at the conference about how we should live in harmony, and spoke about the human rights abuses which are ongoing in Kashmir. Next month I host the EU-Kashmir week in European Parliament and will take a group of local kashmiris with me.
 
Tens of thousands attended yesterdays event and I'd like to say thank you to everybody with their kind words about my speech. I shall post a video of my speech, plus wording, onto the blog shortly.
