It IS in the public interest for Downey to be prosecuted over the four soldiers massacred in 1982 <\/p>\n
IT is hard to stomach when evil murderers get public money to defend themselves but justice would not be served otherwise. <\/p>\n
Nor will it be if the prime suspect in the IRA Hyde Park atrocity never faces trial because this same Legal Aid fund will not foot the bill. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Justice will not be done if John Downey, already freed after a blunder, dodges a private prosecution too. <\/p>\n
It was deemed in the public interest to give 380,000 to men so wicked they ultimately got whole life terms. <\/p>\n
So, too, to give Downey 50,000 to defend himself before his criminal trial collapsed. <\/p>\n
Now it is squarely in the publics interest for him to be prosecuted over the four soldiers massacred in 1982. <\/p>\n
Despite big donations from Sun readers, it can only happen with Legal Aid. <\/p>\n

JEREMY Corbyn is mute as Venezuela burns. <\/p>\n
So his allies speak for him and their defence is both laughable and appalling. <\/p>\n
They say this once oil-rich countrys collapse is not the fault of socialism but of America for bankrolling unrest. <\/p>\n
And Corbyns young fans say Venezuela is irrelevant and cannot discredit him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It wasnt irrelevant when he cited it as the shining example of socialisms better way. <\/p>\n
Nor when he and guru Seumas Milne delightedly congratulated President Maduro now its virtual dictator, rigging elections and crushing dissent. <\/p>\n
It IS relevant to Britain. <\/p>\n
Because this is their lifelong belief system being tested right now, in real time and destroying a nation through the poverty, starvation and oppression that are its natural consequences. <\/p>\n
It is hard proof of the hideous damage Corbyn would do to the many, not the few. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

WHEN will the Government get its priorities straight on roads? <\/p>\n
One hare-brained new scheme is to build giant tents over the most polluted ones to keep fumes away from homes. <\/p>\n
How can we find millions for that when our pock-marked roads are worse than those in Namibia and Ecuador? <\/p>\n
Fix them first. Tents later. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
WHITEHALLS fetish for keeping harmless historic documents secret must end. <\/p>\n
What damage can be done by making public a paper relating to a foreign jaunt Charles and Diana went on in 1986? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The independent body overseeing the release of national records says civil servants cover-up culture is getting worse and often has no justification. <\/p>\n
We should have an automatic right to see all 30-year-old Government documents and be given a damn good reason if not. <\/p>\n
