Lord Hermer troop "witch hunt"
Discussion
Telegraph has been getting a boner for this for a few weeks, but not being widely reported.
It seems Labour really doesn't want any sort of defence...

What a piece of s
t that tt isThe issue that really finished Hermer for me was that despite them suspecting all along that the claims against UK troops might be false, when it became absolutely clear that the claims were indeed a pack of lies without merit, Hermer continued to press that they should try to get 50k per person payouts.. His argument being that the British government and MoD might decide that such a payout was cheaper resolution than the potential legal costs of going to court.

Not a lot of brains, just a severe lack of morals and honesty.
Shouldn't come as a surprise that government policy has been bending to help out with the grifts, whether that's Chagos or the Northern Ireland Troubles Bill.

I recently went to see Johnny Mercer speak at a company event. Hugely impressive man; I went on to read his book, We Were Warriors - thoroughly recommended.He absolutely skewered Starmer and his human rights lawyer buddies. The concept of Human rights in and of itself is a good thing. But applying it to a scenario where there's a split second decision to made about killing or being killed is wholly inappropriate.
Those
s know that full well. And still they proceed. s of the highest order.AC43 said:

It comes as no surprise that Starmer would appoint as AG someone who appears to hate the armed forces of the country and indeed the country in general.
So much so that he refused to commit Britain's armed forces to Trump's activities in the Middle East.The choice of Hermer as AG was made knowing full well what he was and what he represented. There was no political advantage from it either, no faction being paid off as with some other appointments. This was who Starmer is and that is why it comes as no surprise.

Starmer & co have been trying to create an industry round it like financial miss-selling. Odious behaviour.
