The families of the men being held illegally in Guantanamo Bay by the US, without any human rights and in contravention of most if not all the laws on the planet, have been demonstrating outside Downing Street today.
The Britons' case was raised by UK Prime Minister Tony Blair during last month's state visit to Britain by US President George W Bush. At the time, Mr Blair said the dispute would be resolved "sometime soon".
As I've previously said, the sticking point is how to convict men for crimes where there is no evidence of wrongdoing, where any result other than conviction will be extremely embaressing for the Special Relationship between Tony Blair and Dubya's arse.
