HAW Daily Brief 1/1 British Hostage Couple at 'Breaking Point' - Son
hostageaid.org/british-hosta…
UK - BBC
Lindsay and Craig Foreman went on hunger strike in May after their phone access was "cut off".
Lindsay's son Joe Bennett said he feared that they would continue to refuse food "indefinitely".
"My mum and Craig are now risking their lives... because they feel they have run out of other options," he said. "Hunger strikes are not symbolic gestures. They are acts of desperation." "They have been pushed to breaking point," Bennett told the BBC. "Their only agency is to take control of the one thing they can - their body." @freelindscraig

Lindsay and Craig must not be forgotten. They are not bargaining chips. They are a couple separated from their family, facing each day in difficult & uncertain conditions. The Government has recognised publicly that Lindsay and Craig are innocent. c.org/xgYJXBJmKt
