London, UK. 4th November 2016. More than 500 Kurds march through Parliament Square on a peaceful march through London to protest noisily at the Turkish embassy after the arrest early today of the two leaders of Turkey’s pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic party (HDP), along with at least 11 MPs. They see it as an attempt by the government and Prime Minister Erdogan to eradicate democracy in Turkey. Kurds hold a banner 'Kurdish Existence Under Attack in Turkey!. Politicians Jailed, Councils Seized. A Nation Under Siege' . Credit: Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
