Paddy Hill, one of wrongly convicted Birmingham Six, dies aged 80

Hill, imprisoned for 16 years for 1974 pub bombing, set up organisation helping other victims of miscarriages of justice

The conviction of the Birmingham 6 was one of the low points of English corruption. You have likely seen Daniel Day Lewis in the film of the corrupt convictions of the Guilford 4.

This was just as bad. Nobody has been held responsible for the atrocity although I suspect the authorities know who did it. The victims families still wait for justice.

A corrupt govt and a orrrupt police force. No wonder the Irish want independence.

I remember that story, one of worst miscarriages of English Justice just to get conviction.

I remember that story, one of worst miscarriages of English Justice just to get conviction.

But nobody held accountable. That is telling in itself.
