Students for a Free Tibet Edinburgh were outside the Chinese Consulate today to protest the opening of the Chinese railway in Tibet. Donning our black armbands to represent this black day for Tibet we took pictures of ourselves outside the building that have been sent in to www.rejecttherailway.com.

Iain climbed the exterior wall to get the Tibetan flag nearer the Consulate and in doing so attracted the attention of a big group of Irish guys in the pub opposite. We explained what was happening and they agreed to take part! Check out the pics below.
