Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy and Reconciliation) Act 2023 (Remedial) Order 2024Contribution
In conclusion, the facts are these: the vast majority of IRA murderers have never faced prosecution or justice, and yet there are those who wish to haul elderly former members of the security forces before the courts. All republicanism wants is to milk the British state for millions of pounds—they have already done so, and they continue to do so—and our Government are foolish and gullible enough to pay. Even Adams is now permitted to get in on the act and intends to fill his pockets with British money. Every penny given to such republicans is another slap in the face to innocent victims.
