I started reading this thread and interpreted it to be funding for the families victims to sue the police. Whilst the grief and pain of these families should never be forgotten or dismissed out of hand it can also be interpreted as an exercise in pinning the blame on the police, in the manner of a consolation prize, neatly sidestepping the real perpetrators of the crime where the true blame should lie. The IRA.
It soon degenerated, as so many threads do on here into a defence of the IRA... into supporting freedom fighters.
Sorry but I find this so wrong and deeply offensive.
Much more of this crap and I shall seriously have to reconsider my membership. Not a flounce. I do that when I'm narked. This is different.

A truly despicable act from a really 'nasty party'!!!
'Alleged?'
now that is stretching artistic licence a bit.

The police have a lot to answer for. Firstly their 'wrongful' prosecution of the 'Birmingham six', the unlawful beatings and mistreatment of those prisoners whilst in Police custody, and ignoring of evidence at the scene of the explosions, because that evidence was 'inconvenient' and didn't fit with the people the police had arrested.

Missing the point aren't you.
The police would have nothing to answer for and 21 people would still be alive and 182 uninjured if the bombs had not been planted.

Catch the ones who do the crime, costs more and is more time consuming though.
