Every Saturday there is a protest
Please come to the next protest (Saturday 2nd April 2011) or use whatever channels you can (eg. contacting the Yemeni government, your own elected representatives, other groups and networks you belong to and spreading the word to your friends, family and colleagues) to demand freedom, justice, democracy and respect for the people of Yemen.
Update-
I am sorry if I have misled anyone by posting the above. As far as I can tell there was no protest outside the embassy / Natural History Museum on Sat 2nd, but this youtube video appears to be shot opposite Downing Street, yesterday: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvMchBly4ow
