Birmingham pub bombings case may be re-opened

Quote:

A call to reopen the investigation into the Birmingham pub bombings is being considered by the prime minister.
Relatives of some of the 21 people killed in the bombings have compiled a dossier of their case, which is being read by David Cameron.
Nearly 40 years after the attack, the family of one of the victims, Maxine Hambleton, are campaigning for the case to be reopened.

Should we be pursuing this or just move on ?

Personally i don't think we will ever get to the truth short of a death bed confession

What attitude :confused:

I don't think we will ever know the truth of who the real bombers where .Patrick Hill reckons he knows the names of the bombers so why doesn't he spill the beans ,i daresay that the security services know the names but have no evidence

How can you draw a comparison between a crime and a disaster

He isn't, he's drawing a comparison to your just move on comment, they same thing was said to the Hillsborough victims families over and over and they never did and got justice in the end.
