Two former paratroopers accused of the murder of an Official IRA man in 1972 have been formally acquitted after their trial collapsed.
Joe McCann, 24, was shot in disputed circumstances in Joy Street in the Markets area of Belfast in April 1972.
The court heard he was evading arrest when soldiers opened fire, killing him.
Soldiers A and C, both in their 70s, had pleaded not guilty. The men admitted firing shots but said they had acted lawfully when doing so.
Both soldiers were interviewed by a police legacy unit, the Historical Enquiries Team (HET), in 2010 and it was this evidence that formed a substantial part of the prosecution's case.
Good, should have never have taken place.

and if your pov as mine is central you're classed as right wing/ tory or any other title that happens to be fashionable , there's no winners |
Hello, Earth calling - you are not central.
You are a working class Tory.
(Do you remember Alf Garnett at all ? - just asking like ...)
None of the opinions you put forward are to the left of the hard Brexiteer little Englanders.
I don't think its for you to judge, so i hope you find this helpful.
Maybe you can change ? |  |

Good post.
This forum has turned into a platform for the right wing bullies.
Look how how long that brexit remoaners thread has gone on.
I must admit I'm getting fed up of it |
Can you point to me via a PM where the right wing bullying is taking place, and some threads or posts that reflect that please. |  |

Nothing received, I can’t fix what is perceived to be an issue by people making generic statements without a link to issues which I cannot find myself. If anyone else has a particular post, then link it here and I’ll look at it or get the network to. | |

Clearly,those who aspire to be left cannot accept anything that doesn’t fit what they believe.
Belief in something that is not left does not make you right and anyway,why is left better than right.
Right.?
Seems to me the right post to counter the left who then complain as odd the left when the right do it.
Best bin left and right and get a life.
Be free. | |

I consider myself left in my political opinion.
I take serious issue with anyone who tells me I own a website that they state has right wing bullying on it and then when asked to assist with identifying the issue, doesn’t respond or take any notice. | |

It's obvious you dress to the left and it credits you as my Police career was in times that were hardly conducive to those who were not "right" wing and rather racist to boot.
You know a little about me. Being refered to as an intelligent maverick ,who looks to be both disrespectful to senior ranks and prone to verbosity , is one appraisal I still treasure.
And dont forget I am both right and left in every way

Let them tell you to your face, and let me be there to see it 😂 There are still a few left on here who can't see the damage they do by making bullshit statements and then not back them up. |  |

Is there a definition for bullying behaviour ? , check out the "the thick Welsh sheep" and "leftie scum" quotes on the Hartlepool thread, on a personal level I have no issue in the slightest with the post or poster but would like to know if that is ok by you, if so does it give the green light for others to post in kind ? posters might have things to say about English people, Jewish people, Irish people, Army types, Royalists etc etc using the same language.

Press report with an explanation of what the issue is and someone will have a look.
I can’t read every post, nor can anyone else be expected to.
Edit : yes that one post was removed earlier today.

Would you also prosecute soldiers who fought in world war 2 ? | |

That question is not relevant to this thread , if I may why do you think that they shouldn't ? | |
