But there are sum difficulties:
UPDATE* Milliband has contacted the Egyptians to request safe passage for the convoy… THANK YOU FOR CONTACTING HIM!… Now: contact the media! News is circulating that the Convoy will be stopped from entering Egypt! Get the word out & be ready to contact the media, Government & MPs [list]Think we have to prepare letters for press and embassy ready!!
