I'm pleased to say that both the Liberal Democrats (through its internatinal relations committee and the Westminister Foundation for Democracy) and English PEN (on whose Writers in Prison Committee I serve) have agreed to make Egypt a top priority for work over the coming months (and beyond). Last July, I attended the launch of the Arab Liberal Network (ALMENA) which includes some excellent journalists, academics, bussinessmen and political activists, who are working to prmote liberal values and defend freedoms in this important and in many ways delightful country. I am due to return to Cairo in June for more meetings.jonthanfryerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12781000093770724021noreply@blogger.com
