Greetings Everyone!
Just in: "I ask you to be involved in a Twitter Storm. The request is to ask you to join us in a Twitter Storm tomorrow, Friday August 12th, 2016 (6PM UK, 1PM US East Coast, 9:30PM Iran). These past months have taught me the power of social media – to push for change. The aim of the twitter storm is simple, get our story trending globally and secure more signatures and support for our petition." - Richard Ratcliffe, Nazanin's husband (Click here for more information.)
