Justice for the 21, 1974 Birmingham pub bombings - Julie Hambleton
Is it now too late to get to the truth behind the 1974 Birmingham pub bombings? HARDtalk’s Stephen Sackur speaks to Julie Hambleton, founder of Justice for the 21.
HARDtalk’s Stephen Sackur speaks to Julie Hambleton, founder of Justice for the 21. In November 1974 the IRA bombed two pubs in Birmingham and murdered twenty one people. More than forty four years later the inquest into those deaths was reopened, attended by the families of the victims, including Julie Hambleton, who lost her sister Maxine. During the hearings one witness, a convicted former IRA man, named four alleged perpetrators; but justice in this terrible case has never been done. Is it now too late to get to the truth?
