Today is the 40th anniversary of the Birmingham Pub Bombings.
21 dead. Hundreds injured.
No-one has been held to account.

Well, had the police concentrated on finding the real perpetrators rather than fabricating evidence, then we'd maybe have found those involved.

Indeed. Which is to their eternal discredit (frightening how little has changed/been learned) but of no comfort to family and friends of those who were lost. There is a great deal of pain here still.

Anyone have any ideas what sort of sentences these terrorist types are likely to get?

Shame we cannot go back 500 years, like they have,and behead them! Perhaps film it and put it on al jezeera too.

Actually the death penalty for treason stopped in 1998...Would we seriously have gone through with it then though?
I'd expect at least 20 years for these crimes although hanging them would be far cheaper😀

dont be silly. They have the evidence, but papers cant say "they would have" until proven in court. Rarely do our security forces get it wrong. Best in the world at what they do.

So, you want to kill these extremists who want to die being seen as martyrs for their cause?

Why would you want to change the mindset of those thinking its worthy to behead an innocent person in the streets of the UK ?

When it gets to this level of barbarity we really needn't care what those that support such actions think.

You might want to consider the consequences of certain actions that our security services might employ within certain faith communities, but not in these cases, here you just need to discuss what might be seen as appropriate punishment.
