Great news, it would be even better if ๐ฌ๐ง would commit to long overdue #NuclearJustice for #Kiribati ๐ฐ๐ฎ @KTeaiwa @EpeliVl @_vehia_ @benetckmaddison @dasafo123 @KaiSawaieke @J_Blades_ @atomiclabrats @StePurse @LazeeLeftEye63 #OperationGrapple #Banaba ๐๐ผhttps://t.co/YkYV4RgcmI
This is an amazing moment, and an historic one - the man who will be PM in a week's time, saying nuclear veterans were victims of an injustice and "this House must hear their call" for a 1yr tribunal to end the cover-up that has dogged thousands of lives for 74 years.
@AndyBurnham says it is "entirely consistent" with the duty of candour in the Hillsborough Law, and there is widespread agreement across the Commons with his words.
Maybe if that happens, the rest of Fleet Street will wake up and smell what I've been shovelling for 20 years.

My late father was a nuclear test veteran @BBCBreakfast He was on #ChristmasIsland in 1958 during #OperationGrapple and saw, iirc, six drops. Thank you for highlighting this issue. It's been covered up for far too long, by successive UK governments.

2. Grapple 1 test in May 1957. Hailed as Britain's first hydrogen bomb test, it was in fact a failure.

"Will the #UK government act on its moral responsibility for compensation and reparations to the #Fijian, #NZ and i-#Kiribati participants in #OperationGrapple?"
Will the UK government act on its moral responsibility for compensation and reparations to the Fijian, NZ and i-Kiribati participants in Operation Grapple? It's time for UK diplomats who pledge Pacific partnership to step up. @UK_DA_Pacific @BrianJJonesUK

Lest we forget. #MissingMedal
(Call The Midwife highlighted the fate of the veterans of #OperationGrapple and their families in s10, ep1. https://t.co/GgJILr1mDm)
At the #remembranceday2022 event at the Cenotaph tomorrow, you will see a small band of veterans wearing these black and yellow badges.
It is the #MissingMedal.
Dad will forever be my hero. This will be the last anniversary for many British Atomic Veterans as their numbers slowly dwindle across the years. This is their story and it needs to be told. #atomicveterans #notforgotten #christmasisland #operationgrapple #nationalservice
This powerful exhibition shines a light on this important story. It is a reminder of the devastating effects of nuclear testing in the Pacific and its toll on human life.

ALL WE SEEK IS JUSTICE
Today is the 65th anniversary of the start of Operation Grapple.
Memorial in the church in West Ham that until a moment ago I never even knew existed.
Very moving to see.
My Dad was at Grapple X

65 years ago today - the first nuclear detonation of #OperationGrapple.
Prominent tests in the series were #GrappleX in November 1957 - Britain's 1st hydrogen bomb a 100x more powerful than Hiroshima & #GrappleY, an even bigger bomb in April 1958.

Great to visit one of my favourite aircraft #ValiantXD818 @RAF_Cosford captained by family friend the late #GroupCaptainHubbard #OperationGrapple #ChristmasIsland
So while I'm back in the UK for a few days I'm catching up on #CallTheMidwife The coverage of the babies born from the men of #ChristmasIsland and #OperationGrapple is so commendable @StephenMcGann is amazing in his role as a #ScienceCommunicator I hope he receives recognition.
#f2b @JChurchRadio men died on #ChristmasIsland where me dad was 2957/58 #OperationGrapple during #atomic & #hydrogen #tests @Earthfiles
