Thanks for uploading. I’ve no idea if PC Clarke is still alive today but what he did coming forward like this took huge courage. He was at the Birmingham Six’s release party in the summer of 1991 and I thanked him for what he did. This documentary led to the case being sent back to appeal a month later, an appeal at which PC Clarke and another former WM Police officer testified the men had been assaulted. That new evidence was all dismissed by the three appeal judges in January 1988, seemingly because they just couldn’t admit the huge lie that had been created. It took another three years for the Birmingham Six to be released in March 1991 when the lie became just too unsustainable to maintain.
Them bombings was never given the green light from the army council they was independents who didn’t or wouldn’t take orders. So much mystery surrounded those terrible bombings why would PIRA endorse an action that turned the world against republicans cause. The ones responsible are known to all involved especially M15/ yet they just chose any paddy’s they could pin it on. Even in the English prisons system they was never housed with PIRA because they weren’t members,they done there time with criminals, this told screws they was innocent and after the fuse died down the screws treated them proper unlike true members.
You are going to kill me because I have asked before and going to ask again this time will write it down . What is the name of that beautiful tune you have at the beginning of your videos really like it haunting but fits your videos brilliantly
watch it brilliant Troubled Land had a great documentary on the Shankill Butchers remembered hearing about them growing up from five and read about them
It was all so childish an ASU returning home on a boat tickets bought in there own names, no extraction team to help them the nonsense goes on and on. Paddy Hill was the only one who wouldn’t sign statements because he knew the system. The others where all Snow White civilians working men.
ps World In Action one of my viewing addictions growing up great to see it again and seeing again on the Northern Ireland conflict in which I grew up with of course being in the UK and survived twelve plus IRA attacks . Still I believe in a united Ireland under the Tri Colour flag
