United Kingdom: "We cannot allow such things to continue"
--UK MPs ask the UK government to investigate the CCP's harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners

Former Secretary of State (Asia-Pacific) for Canada and senior MP David Kilgour was invited by Lord Thurlow, former UK diplomat, to hold a seminar in the Houses of Parliament on July 17 regarding the CCP's trade in organs harvested from living Falun Gong practitioners' organs. The UK MPs who attended the seminar appealed to the UK government to take measures to stop the CCP's atrocities.

According to a report by NTDTV on July 17, the seminar was held in the Houses of Parliament in London. Mr. Kilgour introduced the attendees to the report he wrote in Canada, and answered questions raised by the MPs and media. He pointed out that in China, since Falun Gong has been persecuted from 1999 to now, there have been 41,500 organ transplant operations for which the CCP cannot account for the donors. However, the allegation of harvesting the organs from living Falun Gong practitioners answers this question.

The MP of the Liberal Democratic Party thought this investigation report was very important. He thought the UK government has the responsibility to stand in opposition to the CCP's behavior. "I think our government has the responsibility to have the courage to tell the Chinese government that we cannot tolerate this kind of thing anymore."

MP Helen Goodman, from the Labor Party, told the NTDTV reporter after the seminar that she would further urge the Foreign Office to take action. "To be specific, I think there are two aspects: one is to put the squeeze on the Chinese government, another is to ensure the doctors and patients in UK will not collaborate with this kind of thing."

Ms. Laura, a Falun Gong practitioner studying at Cambridge University, gave a speech to tell the participants about the torture she suffered in labor camps in China and verified the fact that she was forced to take a physical exam as well as a blood test while imprisoned in a labor camp.
