I fear you are right and we may, at this moment be hearing about the possibility of another death that may well be by the same perpetrators. How dare we go demanding Democracy has to be ‘imposed’ on other Nations when we are only paying lip service to it. ?
Wonderful book Rob, I dont know how you find the heart to continue your research in the face of such bullying opposition.
Best Wishes, Averil

Unbelievable to kill an old woman who had the courage and the right to be heard. Shame on the Government and shame for sentencing an innocent man to life. We complain about injustice in places like Iraq, Iran, Somalia but this murder is probably only the tip of the iceberg at home.

We must ALL support Cmmdr.Green in his campaign
for justice and the truth about his aunt’s death.
And remember too, there’s a man serving a prison
sentence for something he did NOT do!
State sanctioned murder is a fact; Nairac, Murrell,
Kelly – just a tip of the iceberg.If we don’t demand,
question, research and support, we are complicit
in these crimes against whistleblowers.
The Media don’t engage in conspiracy theories
any more.Perhaps Nick Davies (Paul Foot Award
for Journalism winner) could look at this?
Duncan Campbell, David Rose, – the true investigative
journalists of the 80′s seem to have cosied up
to the banking scandals etc.
Teddy Taylor, Kevin McNamara, Tony Benn – good
men and MP’s who used to stand up and speak out,
Do not have their equal in either House nowadays.
Justice is perverted.The State still persecutes those
who speak up.
But speak up we must!

I read this book last November and was moved by the story. I was pleased to see several copies on the counter at Pennys, Chartwell Square, Hamilton this afternoon and have been thinking about it ever since. I plan to go back tomorrow and buy a copy for a grandson who will find it a gripping read.

About twenty years ago, The BBC made a drama serial called Between The Lines about investigating police corruption or criminal activity. Watching the drama at the time, the final two episodes of Series Two began with the investigation into the murder of an elderly anti -nuclear campaigner – who had hidden documents for a nephew who worked for the Ministry of Defence and who was leaking documents to the press. A case of life imitating art – or even vice- versa.
However, living in Shrewsbury – as soon as it was on the tv, it was pretty obvious, that this wasn’t just drama but was making a direct nod to the events in Shrewsbury in the Mid-Eighties. I am not accusing Miss Murrell’s nephew of leaking documents to the press, that was just part of the story which led to the conclusion of series two – what was interesting was the murder of an elderly anti – nuclear campaigner and the way she was murdered by the state with links to the RUC, MI5 and Special Branch.
It didn’t need a great leap of imagination to see certain similarities between the two stories.
Should anybody ever watch this drama – it will be up to the viewer to draw their own conclusions.
Best wishes

I heard the fascinating interview you gave to Litopia. I was presenting Crimewatch back in 1984 and Hilda Murrell’s murder was one of the first cases we ever appealed for the public’s help with. I’ve always felt certain there was a huge amount more to her murder than met the eye. I am now going to buy your book and look forward to finding out whether some of my theories were right or not.

Extremely well researched and meticulously analysed. Difficult to follow for readers without some background understanding. Chilling for those of us with relevant memories of the times. Disturbing to think such collusion could have happened and such ineptitude be covered up. Incredible that the police settled for the prosecution and conviction thus achieved. Implications for the truth coming out, eventually, hardly bear thinking about but the effort to achieve that objective is deserving of wider support. Amazed at the author’s fortitude and tenacity. More than ably supported in bringing these revelations to publication by the skills and determination of the author’s wife and collaborator.

There are many evil echoes between Hilda’s complex murder and that of Dr David Kelly 17/18 July 2003. The authorities then used every subterfuge to confuse and thus conceal the motives for that killing. The ‘authorities’ have done their damnedest to ensure the silence of Dr Kelly in his grave. We have recently lost our plea to judicially review the Attorney General with the intention of getting the inquest a group of doctors have demanded since January 2004. The fight for an inquest goes on.

Robert’s very good book reminds us that we should never give up

It is easy to say ‘the truth shall set us free’ but it requires the Roberts and the Kates to face the darkness with every ounce of courage and wit.

Unless people who know what happened in this
and in numerous other State sanctioned murders,
keep researching, shouting, writing and reporting
the Truth, our ‘freedom’, ‘democracy’ and society
Degenerate and become worthless.
