Downing Street Says » Dalai Lama

Put that the Prime Minister would meet the Dalai Lama at Lambeth Palace, the PMS confirmed that the Prime Minister would be meeting the Dalai Lama on Friday 23rd May and reflecting the fact that the Dalai Lama was a respected spiritual leader, the meeting would take place at Lambeth Palace.

Put that it had been suggested that the reason the meeting was taking place at Lambeth Palace was because of a desire not to irritate the Chinese, the PMS said that the important point was that the Prime Minister was meeting the Dalai Lama. Quite where he met him was not going to add anything of substance to the fact of the meeting. It was worth noting that on the previous two occasions that the Dalai Lama visited the UK, he did not have meetings with the then Prime Minister.

Asked who was Prime Minister during the previous two visits, the PMS said that he did not have the exact dates but the visits were in recent years.

Asked if the Prime Minister would be talking to the Dalai Lama about politics, the PMS said the Prime Minister would be meeting him in his capacity as a spiritual leader, but no doubt it would be an opportunity to discuss the recent situation in Tibet as people would expect. The PMS reiterated that the Prime Minister would be meeting the Dalai Lama as a spiritual leader.

In stead of meeting him, I would suggest a through investigation on what kind person Dalai Lama is and was? One can hardly find any credible information these days about old cruel Tibet or slave master like him before, how he remove human parts from live body, the history reality. Main stream media usually skip or are very brief about this. He may appear to be a “nice” person, talking about freedom and human rights but numerous articles proved otherwise historically.

Have people checked how not popular Dalai Lama is among “his people” and how laughable his motive is? Most people may have kind heart to wish for the best of other people but many of them do not know the fact that they are hurting more people by supporting Dalai Lama without the knowledge about the person.
