EDM 371
Brian,
Thank you for your kind comments.
Michael Howard's office replied promptly to my message, also saying "Now that the Prime Minister, the Defence Secretary and the Procurement Minister at the time have all accepted that there was a miscarriage of justice and called for the pilots to be cleared, we believe it is appropriate that the Ministry of Defence should give the pilots the benefit of the doubt and clear their names".
I've replied asking if this means that Mr Howard, my MP and others will now sign EDM 371?!!!
In the light of Tony Blair's answer in PMQs today, it looks like we're getting somewhere! Let's keep up the pressure and ALL ask Mr Howard and our own MPs to sign, as visible evidence of the (entirely justified) strength of feeling behind this campaign.
