<p>Brian Haw’s Peace Camp</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Whether the weather was dry or damp</p>
<p>You would find Brian in his Peace Camp</p>
<p>His presence ever opposite parliament</p>
<p>Within his ever protesting encampment</p>
<p>He told Blair straight out “You Lie</p>
<p>Your policies cause the children to die.</p>
<p>Your shells of depleted uranium rain</p>
<p>Dust that cause birth defects and pain</p>
<p>And yet you smile, you never care</p>
<p>You drive past with frozen stare</p>
<p>And never once…</p>

<p>To come and talk or try to explain</p>

<p>I have stood through sun and rain</p>
<p>While all your plans just cause pain.”</p>

<p>When I heard about Brian's death and have posted the information here, my thoughts were constantly with you David, because I knew of your close relationship with him.</p>
<p>On this occasion I would like to thank you very much for your lyrics of the song for the children's choir.</p>
<p>It has touched me deeply, like all your poems dear David !.</p>

On one of my meetings with Brian...we were looking at a huge roll of comments people had put on a roll of paper to protest at the continued support of Israeli settlements by the British Government.

I was fortunate to have met up with Brian on my frequent trips to London from Scotland. He had a dry sense of humour and often sang the Green Fields or the Ode to Willie McBride...<br />
Did they Beat the drum slowly, did they play the pipes lowly?<br />
Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down?<br />
Did the bugles sound The Last Post in chorus?<br />
Did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest?<br />

Brian was totally dedicated to what he believed was right and was possibly one of the greatest peace campaigners of all time...up there on a par with Martin Luther and John Lennon...he lived his protest through ten years of discomfort while daily he faced the idiots in parliament that cause these uncalled for wars...and he told them to their faces that they were liers and thieves of lives. Above all he gave his life to the cause of peace and showed the British people that it takes guts to fight, it takes courage to have the constant beatings from our brutal police (we live in a police fascist state that outlaws peaceful protest)...he stood for all that is best in the human psyche, all that is noble and fine, upholding human rights of other without a voice...he was the giant among the pygmies of Whitehall...and I was honoured to number him among my friends...I shall miss him but the mission goes on till all weapons become museum pieces and peace prevails in every human heart.
