Labour Government and Irish Legacy Justice - Where Do Victims Stand (Video)

The British Labour Party and new Prime Minister Keir Starmer pledged to “repeal and replace” the Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy and Reconciliation)Act which was imposed by the Conservatives despite overwhelming opposition from Irish victims’ relatives, human rights campaigners, the Irish government and all major six county political parties. Now, three months after taking office, there are growing concerns that the new Labour government will keep the Independent Commission on Reconciliation and Information Retrieval (ICRIR) created by the Tories to replace legacy mechanisms that were bringing justice to victims. Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick, joins victims’ relative Pola Cairns, civil rights lawyer Padraig O’Muirigh, Irish Parliament representative Peadar Tobin, and justice campaigner Mark Thompson, on a webinar, hosted by the Ancient Order of Hibernians, (AOH) Saturday, October 12th.
