😔😔😔

This all seems a bit one- sided in favour of the terrorists, what a surprise 🙄

How sad ,hounded to death someone should pay 😓

2tweetaboutit He didn't take his own life. he was killed by british M Ps god bless him

Shocking and terribly sad. Let’s hope the mass morons of the media give this the air time it deserves.

How very sad. People like him kept people like us as safe as possible. RIP

☹️sad

They colluded with loyalist paramilitaries, they shot innocent bystanders in the back, they maimed children, they regularly intimidated and humiliated the nationalist community. sure there were probably some good soldiers in there but there were murderous scumbags among them too

BorisJohnson DominicRaab BrandonLewis you are failing your own Military This man committed Suicide because of your failure to protect your veterans UKSupremeCourt Action needs to be brought aganist the Government to force Crown legislation to protect our Armed Forces

Will we see any TV celebs speaking out about this one ?

With the many terrorists that were released on the good Friday agreement, it is absolutely wrong

British soldiers not only cannon fodder, but political bargaining chips.

People off Ireland. Yes at times accidents happened sadly but f IRA members to Walk Free is Ridicules while soldiers go on trial

Our soldiers where sent there by the Gov theydid not go on there own instruction, The Gov need to pardon these soldiers now like bloody IRA members got Letters , not one rule f them who where blowing innocent men women children up no rule f soldiers who where t to protect the p

Desperately sad

Oh well 😆

It's a shame how a person's actions can haunt and torture them to such a point that it's only in death they see any possibility of escape. I hope their family is able to find the peace they were so desperately looking for. Mental illness is so tragically unforgiving to so many.

Come on boris get your act together

RIP brother

So sad

Nothing good comes from shooting unarmed peaceful people, nothing good comes from deviding other people's nations. Let be an United Ireland, let be Justice, let be Truth. And god bless the heroes of 1916 and all the other ones who fought for Irish Independence and Freedom.

Happy now jeremycorbyn

So sad, but if guilty? Many dark deeds were committed at the instigation of Unionist and British politicans. Soldiers are pawns, the real evils are Ian Paisley, Margaret Thacher, Orange Order, Some British Army Generals. Gerry Adams, Martin McGuiness, LVF UDA, Truth commission?

DREADFUL THIS! FXXKING TERRIBLE! GOVNT SHOULD BE ASHAMED.HE WASNT PROTECTED!!SUFFERED FOR YEARS.WAS DOING HIS JOB.THE 'TROUBLES' WERE AWFUL.THIS MAN WAS THROWN TO THE WOLVES!!😱

Very sad.

I got feeling all of us who served there will be locked up with the nut jobs who run this country.

Great country we prosecute our own yet leave Muslim rapists alone.

Shameful that this hasn't been sorted by now

Given the wider stress created to other veterans by this witch hunt and the large number of Northern Island veterans I expect a hefty group litigation order.

What was accused of?

If we can give IRA members amnesty from prosecution we can do the same for our troops.

They don't care, he is white , the wrong religion and wring nationality .

Labour will be rubbing their hands in glee at this news

So whilst British soldiers are rounded up for what they did in the past and put on trial, members of the IRA are allowed to roam freely and even take seats of parliament? In what world is that fair? Fucking ridiculous.

And their tanks..

He probably did nothing wrong
