§ 30. Mr. CorbynTo ask the Attorney-General when he expects a date to be set for the appeal of the six men convicted of the Birmingham pub bombings; and if he will make a statement.
§ The Attorney-GeneralI refer the hon. Gentleman to my answer to the hon. Member for Sunderland, South (Mr. Mullin).
§ Mr. CorbynWill the Attorney-General confirm that senior judges are saying that the Guildford Four were guilty, despite the fact that they were released by the court? What hope is there for a genuinely fair trial for the Birmingham Six when, apparently, senior members of the judiciary do not accept the findings of the Court of Appeal in relation to the Guildford Four?
§ The Attorney-GeneralI confirm nothing of the kind.
