Members of the Bloody Sunday families have arrived in London to highlight their concerns over continued delays in the publication of the Saville inquiry report.
Fourteen people died and 13 others were injured after the parachute regiment opened fire on demonstrators during a civil rights march in Derry on January 30 1972.
Thirty-eight years and two inquiries later, the families' quest for justice is still not over.
Nine family members and supporters made a symbolic trip to London where they delivered a copy of the report of the 1972 Widgery inquiry to 10 Downing Street.
Commonly acknowledged as a whitewash, the inquiry failed to apportion any blame for the massacre and limited its criticism to saying that the shooting by soldiers may have "bordered on the reckless."
The report of the Saville inquiry is due to be delivered to Northern Ireland Secretary Sean Woodward on Monday, but will not be given to the relatives for at least two weeks after that.
Mr Woodward has suggested that the Ministry of Defence and MI5 may be given the report before the families of those who died, something they state must not happen.
Gerry Duddy, whose older brother Jackie was just 17 years old when he was gunned down, asked the Star: "Why should the MoD, MI5, the government or anyone else get the report before we do?
"The minister is saying he wants to bring in experts to examine the report. These were the people who were involved in Bloody Sunday in the first place. Why should they see the report before us?"
The families fear the report could be amended or have parts withheld by government agencies.
Mr Duddy said: "There is only one parent now left who lost a child on Bloody Sunday. I was only 14 when my brother was killed and we have lived with this for 38 years.
"We cannot allow our loved ones to suffer another Widgery. People have to know the truth."
As well as the Downing Street protest, the families delivered a copy of the infamous "shot list" drawn up by the army to the Ministry of Defence.
They also handed a letter outlining their concerns to Gordon Brown personally.
