On 29 August 2007 the Prime Minister unveiled a statue of Nelson Mandela in a ceremony in Parliament Square.
Accompanied by London Mayor Ken Livingstone, the PM revealed the three metre sculpture to thousands of onlookers in the company of Nelson Mandela and his wife, Graca Machel.
Mr Brown said it would act as a "beacon of hope" and showed the world that "no injustice can last forever".
