Local support but local media <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The continued absence of local television at a prolonged event that has clearly garnered much local interest and support is baffling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our visitors book, some wonderful and powerful comments; local <\/strong>people speaking out about an issue that is about Sheffield but with international ramifications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So why have Calendar and Look North not turned up? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this had been two Ukranian women 18 months ago, the local media would have been down here instantly. Why not for Palestinian women<\/em>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
