Episode 211 | London protest against Iran

BICOM's Podcast

In this episode, Jack Omer-Jackaman speak to Iranian democracy campaigner Vahid Beheshti. They discuss Beheshti’s campaign to have the UK government proscribe the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). They also cover the IRGC’s record of global terror – including its multiple assassination attempts of British nationals – and the fundamental weakness of the Iranian regime in the face of huge unpopularity and domestic dissent. A journalist, human rights campaigner, and long-time UK resident, Beheshti is currently engaged in a sit-in protest outside the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development office in London, following a previous 72-day hunger strike.
