Should this gesture from Gadaffi to pay up to £2 billion to the victims of the IRA now be welcomed?
Gordon Brown personally vetoed an attempt to force Colonel Muammar Gadaffi to compensate IRA bomb victims because it might have jeopardised British oil deals with Libya.
According to the Sunday Times, dated September 6, 2009
/// Brown said in a letter to Jason McCue, the victims’ lawyer, dated October 7, 2008: “The UK government does not consider it appropriate to enter into a bilateral discussion with Libya on this matter.” ///
