I cannot respect someone who resorts to endless malicious untrue allegations, distortion of others' views, racist comments and outright lies

I entirely agree

Can you respect a person that merely points out the truth? eh Himmie :ROFLMAO:

"The Northern Ireland (Offences) Bill says that anyone accused of terrorist offences committed before 10 April 1998 will be tried by tribunal, but will be released under licence if found guilty.

Those suspected, charged with or convicted of an offence before the Good Friday Agreement will be able to apply to a commissioner, who will grant a certificate allowing them home provided they are not still involved in terrorist activity.

Those convicted of a terrorist offence after the Good Friday Agreement and those who have been sent to jail for five years or more after that date will be ineligible...

The Secretary of State has the power to cancel the certificate, if its terms are broken.
The Government insisted that applicants would be subjected to a "judicial process", because prosecution for the offences would be pursued through "special tribunals".
The tribunals would operate like a conventional Crown Court...

If convicted, the person would be eligible for a licence on condition he agrees to provide fingerprints and samples. The terms of the licence would be similar to those that exist for prisoners released early under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement.

A licence will not be given to those who are deemed to be a danger to the public."

So not an amnesty at all.
(even though some erroneously claim it is)

Don't forget to wipe the egg off your face before skulking back (y)
All you have posted above is total crap ,as worthless as the people who created it.
This was typical Tony Blair spin.
Actions speak louder than words, why don't you post the ruling of Justice Sweeney on the Hyde park bombing trial and why the trial had to be abandoned.
The alleged bomber wasn't released because of lack of evidence, on the contrary, his fingerprints were found on a parking ticket used for the bomb car, he was also a well known terrorist.
The Judge ruled that because politicians had given guarantees to to the defendant it meant that the trial could not continue.
Amnesty's are given by politicians and not judges.
All the tripe you posted about tribunals is just so much crap.
This alleged bomber never faced any tribunal before or after his arrest.
When you consider the families of the victims of Hyde park are reduced to having to raise money to fund a civil action against the alleged bomber you should be ashamed peddling the lies from Blair's spin doctors.

They shouldn't, if you believe that members of the armed forces don't need to behave any better than terrorists.

If you think that terrorists and soldiers are morally equivalent then by all means claim that they should be treated the same when they murder people.
If you believe in equality under the law then everyone should be subject equally, if you want exemption for one group then it should apply to all groups.
Make your mind up.

Not my fault you can't accept the facts after spouting off erroneously...
('fake news' started way before Trump ;))

But hey, if you still believe you're in the right then you'll have no trouble posting a link to official legal documents that specifically mention an 'amnesty'...

The ones that state also that there are no conditions whatsoever attached...

Surely you can do that, can't you? (y)

They just seem to have it in for some people...

As my mate Bill Posters was mentioning the other day...

You appear to be unable to grasp that that is what I'm saying.

I notice that Corbyn has said he supports the prosecution of British soldiers for alleged offences committed in N.Ireland .
As one ex para pointed out why should ex soldiers be prosecuted whether they are guilty or not if the IRA have been given guarantees that they won't be prosecuted for their crimes.

Are we to take it that you are just as much in favour of the prosecution of soldiers, or ex-soldiers, as you are the prosecution of IRA, or ex-IRA, terrorists?

Anyone who breaks the law should be prosecuted, if you make exceptions it undermines respect for the system .
If IRA terrorists are exempt from answering for their crimes why should anyone else involved in the conflict be held to account.

Poor old vinty appears to be of the opinion that if you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it!

And we're still awaiting your reply to:

"But hey, if you still believe you're in the right then you'll have no trouble posting a link to official legal documents that specifically mention an 'amnesty'"

Is there a problem in answering that?
