The UK government has decided not to bring criminal charges against armed policemen who cold bloodedly executed Jean Charles de Menezes, an electrician from Brazil, in an underground train at Stockwell station. No surprise there. In a farcical inquest last month the coroner, Sir Something or the Other, would not allow the jury to bring in a verdict of unlawful killing because it would mean that officers were guilty of murder. He allowed them a choice between lawful killing or open verdict. Why have a jury if they are not allowed to have an opinion? Better still why have an inquest at all? Why not write your own verdict and save the taxpayer an awful lot of money. The policemen, who were not identified, shed tears of repentance and lied about shouting a warning before killing the innocent man in cold blood. The jury showed their disbelief by bringing in an open verdict. The UK justice system is totally corrupt. In the past there have been innumerable cases where innocent people were locked up for years for crimes they did not commit such as the Guidford four and the Birmigham six. IRA prisoners in custody were shot in the back in Gibralter. Lawrence, a black teenager, was murdered in cold blood by white youths but the police did not investigate even though everyone knew who they were. The list is too long for me to remember. I would not care but for the fact that British ministers dare to lecture others on corruption. Surely the thing to do would be to make a list of all the cases and hand a copy to the next idiot who dares to lecture. But that would mean we have people with character.
