US Lockerbie bomber investigation

[MMI]

What are they quoting a Tory SMP for? They are the least relevant "serious" party in Scotland.

I'm tempted to suggest that al-Megrahi's survival for such a long time is testimony to the efficiency of the Libyan health service. He probably wouldn't have lasted so long in Greenock Prison.

Our Health Service is little better than our Legal System, which is supposed to convict only when guilt is proved beyond reasonable doubt, yet in this case, where we have the Lord Advocate saying that the main witness was not quite the "full shilling", and whose testimony was suspect in that his identification of al Megrahi as the man he had sold clothes to 11 1/2 years earlier was simply that Megrahi "resembled" the customer ...

Worry first that /megrahi was not the victim of a miscarriage of justice, rather than making sure that someone ... anyone ... can pay the penalty for killing Americans
