I don't know why, but I was sure I heard the Lockerbie bomber died! I was wrong, as according to this:

He is recovering! Could this be one of the reasons the US does not give a toss about the UK and the Falklands - what goes around....

It was Sky News who got it wrong. We all know how they like to shout first and loudest (in black and yellow) if a mouse farts.

AT least the article is written with a cynical view.

What a truly pathetic country we have now, ruled by those without honour or a sense of morality.

Banging on about a guy being released under conditions that have always existed is a smokescreen to hide the fact he had fk all to do with it in the first place.

Yes we look like a bunch of dicks but not for letting him go

Handing over a sacrifcial lamb in the first place was low, too!

Well said. There is so much rubbish spouted about this case - we were 100% right to let him go.

Oh, and btw, I agree with the principle of the law not just the use of it.

You have overlooked the obvious explanation that the Libians has developed a cure for cancer that we have not found or are not being allowed.

NICE.

Rather more obviously, the root source of the story is the Daily Mail - with considerable "form" in this sort of "story"
