Yes -I was serving in N.I. in the 70's and yes I did witness,first hand, the human consequencies of the barbaric activities of the PIRA.
I'm not sure that it is all about snowflakes, I believe the primary driver here is the simple ruse of saying that justice must be seen to be done, at any cost.
Well.... providing that cost is the bill from my chambers to HMG (Taxpayers) and it's a belter.
Look at Asylum Seeker appeals. Do we all really think that UK taxpayers should be funding translation services and legal representation for foreigners? Some, I have no percentages, of the people involved came here unlawfully, committed offences, were told to go, and are getting aid (paid by us) to fight that decision!
