SRF Hon President supports campaign to name road after Boris Nemtsov.

[Stephen Kinnock @SKinnock]

Growing support for our proposal to designate road in front of Russian embassy after Boris Nemtsov, with Malcolm Rifkind - former MP for @RBKC - now backing it. Important we stand up for democratic values, human rights and with those fighting for both in Russia. @vkaramurza

[Dr Louise Hardiman @LouiseHardiman]

Looks amazing indeed — and perhaps will spark the interest of a new generation of Russophiles? Let’s hope so
