So you know what happened on 7/7?
What if four young British Muslim men had been tried and convicted of crimes for which no legitimate evidence had ever been presented to the British public?
What if the history of British police investigation into terrorism on mainland Britain involved the suppression of evidence which proved the innocence of the accused and the manufacture of evidence to convict wholly innocent people? Remember the Birmingham Six, Guildford Four, Maguire 7, Judith Ward and Danny McNamee, amongst others?
What if, in the only piece of 'evidence' ever presented to the British public, which allegedly shows the four perpetrators of the London bombings together outside Luton station, is inadmissible as evidence because three of the men's faces are completely unidentifiable?
What if there was no CCTV footage in the public domain showing three of the alleged perpetrators of the London tube bombings actually in London on 7/7?
What if the British Home Secretary admitted the official Home Office report placed the accused on a train from Luton to London that was cancelled and did not run on 7/7?
What if the official Home Office report into the London bombings was confusing on every crucial detail from the movements of the accused, right through to the blast locations on the affected underground trains?
What if a Freedom of Information request to obtain the original, uncompressed, unedited CCTV image from a CCTV camera outside Luton station was refused?
What if numerous Freedom of Information requests to find out the facts about what happened on 7/7 were repeatedly refused legitimate responses?
What if the train operating companies, police and even the Prime Minister reported the underground blasts as occurring on completely different lines and at completely different locations to the version of the story published in the official Home Office report?
What if nobody had ever heard the stories of the train drivers that morning and all transport and emergency services staff were actively and expressly forbidden from talking to the media about what happened on 7/7?
What if, one month before 7/7, a piece of legislation came into force, the Inquiries Act 2005, which guaranteed that there could be no such thing as an 'independent' or 'public' inquiry under its terms?
The July 7th Truth Campaign is the only grass-roots organisation to echo the sentiments of the Law Society of England & Wales, Amnesty International and Geraldine Finucane in calling on the judiciary to boycott any inquiry proposed under the terms of the Inquiries Act 2005. If the Inquiries Act 2005 is not fit for the purpose of investigating the killing of a Human Rights lawyer almost 20 years ago, it is most certainly not an acceptable piece of legislation under which to conduct an inquiry into the deaths of 56 people.
“I do accept that people want to know exactly what happened, and we will make sure that they do.... We will bring together all the evidence that we have and publish it, so that people—the victims and others— can see exactly what happened..... we will publish a full account of all the information that we have.” -- Tony Blair, 14th December 2005
The government have not published “a full account of all the information”, nor have they brought together and published all the evidence. The British public cannot “see exactly what happened”, or how it happened, or who was responsible for making it happen.
