You'd be hard pressed to notice in the mainstream media, but this:

Is going on *right now*. A mate of mine - the one I mentioned previously in another thread I think in relation to George Galloway - is unfortunately one of the British nationals on the ship.

I'll let you know how it turns out.

Wow, that's awful! Here's hoping they turn up safe and well in Greece.

All good now thankfully. They eventually got to Greece, despite the captain claiming they were terrorists. My mate and the other British nationals were detained for a few days because all their paperwork and passports were back in Libya, but the embassy sorted them all out and they're now seeing if they can get back to the convoy.

The boat captain has been charged with criminal offences too, and his counterclaims dismissed by the Greek police.
