Hundreds remember the Miami Five

Cuba solidarity campaigners called for the immediate release of the Miami Five on Tuesday night at an impressive vigil outside the US embassy in London.

Braving cold conditions, over 200 activists held placards and lit candles, urging the US authorities to grant visitation rights to the families and use clemency laws to grant their release from prison.

Headline speaker Irma Gonzalez, the daughter of the imprisoned Rene Gonzalez, paid tribute to the British solidarity movement and declared her hopes of seeing her father within the year.

"I thank you all for your love and support. For 12 years you have been with us every step of the way," she said.
