What do we think of this then?

I think a less contentious approach would be to recognise you can’t compensate for the loss of a loved one. And don’t.

Riddiculous…as someone who has lost friends or had others maimed during the troubles….what on earth are they thinking???

£12k why 12k??? Where was that sum plucked from?

What price a life lost? A disfigurement a disability?

Money is not what these people want or need….they long to have their loved ones back!

We should be moving on!

We should be moving on!

I agree entirely. This is their motivation apparently:

“To look backward for a while is to refresh the eye, to restore it,
and to render it more fit for its prime function of looking forward.”
Margaret Fairless Barber (b. 1869, d. 1901)

I dont get it. It comes across as a naive act.

will it include the families of the police and armed forces who lost their lives too? they’re just as dead after all.

My grandad had a heart attack due to the stress, looking forward to claiming.

ill conceived nonsence – well, no change there then.
