Brian Binley, the member of House of commons, called the British government’s defiance on removing the PMOI from terrorist list a gross move. In an article in the Conservative Party’s website, he asked the EU and the US to take the PMOI off the terror list. The article partly reads as below:
I don’t need to tell you that the British Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom has been vindicated. You know that the Proscribed Organisations Appeals Commission has proven what we have known all along, that this Parliamentary Committee and the great support that it has throughout Parliament has been standing on the side of justice, while the government has been doing the absolute opposite. The British government has used the PMOI, Iran’s democratic opposition as a tool in its doomed policy of appeasement with the Iranian regime and this must now end.

The Iranian opposition after more than 6 years of being unjustly labelled terrorist has finally been released from this dark shadow and can now legally oppose one of the most brutal regime in the world.
Our government has gone out of its way to breach its own laws, in order to appease a regime involved not only in some of the worst acts of human rights breaches, but also involved in terrorism that is leading to the deaths of many British military personnel in both Iraq and Afghanistan. All British citizens are shamed by this action.
POAC’s judgment now leaves the terror listing of the PMOI in both the EU and the US without any credibility whatsoever. We therefore call on the British government to act in accordance with the POAC judgment immediately and lay an order before this Parliament removing the PMOI from the list of proscribed organisations. Secondly, we call on the EU and the US take heed of this judgment and see it as an opportunity to make good their own previous mistakes by removing the PMOI from their lists with immediate affect.
I had the privilege of lunching with Mrs Rajavi on Monday last and she was in very good form. I pledged to support Mrs Rajavi and the 3rd option she and the NCRI advocate which calls for full and comprehensive sanctions against Iran while also supporting those Iranians working for a free Iran.
Can I conclude by once again congratulating my colleagues for their endeavours in achieving this unprecedented victory. To the people of Ashraf city and the people of Iran can I send this final message. We within the British Parliamentary Committee will continue our efforts and I know that together we will achieve democracy in Iran in the near future.
I look forward to sharing time with you in a free, secular and democratic Tehran in the near future.
