Vigil at the British Medical Association

Article here. Although the number of boys circumcised in the UK is low by USA levels there is still much public anger at the practice. The reason for the vigil was that the B.M.A. was discussing ethics and once again the non-therapeutic cutting of boy’s genitals was not on the agenda. Excerpt:

'Men Do Complain held a vigil on Wednesday 22nd of February outside the B.M.A. Tavistock Square, London WC1H 9JP. We got there at 08:30 and stayed until the rain, cold and wind overcame us. The reason for the vigil was that the B.M.A. were discussing ethics and once again the non-therapeutic cutting of boy’s genitals was not on the agenda. The vigil went very well the public really are on our side. Several circumcised men approached us and quite openly said that they were glad someone was taking a stand. One surprise was the number of friendly car hoots and we didn’t even have a sign saying hoot if you agree.'
