The honour of my life representing these families. 43 years, almost twice my lifetime, they have campaigned for truth and justice. Today it was done. Every family relentless in their pursuit, absolute heroes. @48NeverCameHome #JFT48

@DiarmuidBreck victims lawyer on behalf. Victims waved anonymity. Snr Garda knew in 1985 victims say ‘localised state collusion’ #stressfulfight #commissionifinvestigation #justice #misconductinpublicoffice

Today’s report vindicates what our clients have said for years. Every institution that should have protected them failed them and in doing so, allowed further abuse to happen.

Further confirmation that the law doesn’t apply to the powerful. Incredibly weak.

The UK has long supported a transition of power in Venezuela. We regarded Maduro as an illegitimate President and we shed no tears about the end of his regime.

I reiterated my support for international law this morning. The UK government will discuss the evolving situation with US counterparts in the days ahead as we seek a safe and peaceful transition to a legitimate government that reflects the will of the Venezuelan people.

If not so serious it’s comical. This man pedalling Israeli propaganda and tries to deflect away from their atrocities. As soon as he finished theres a rattle of machine gun fire, at an *aid centre*. Firing at terrified, starving people but they are the good guys, remember.

[I Am British 🇬🇧 @IAmBritishReal]

British man in Gaza, working for humanitarian org destroys the fake news, Hamas fuelled narratives that all the gullible lefties are using to march on our streets every week.

It’s all lies. There’s no genocide, there’s no 10’s of thousands of kids dead. There’s no starvation.
