The vote passed. The argument didn’t.

from ONE MORE MISSION Hosted by JusticeForVeterans.uk

Former Parachute Regiment officer Lt Col Simon Barry joins One More Mission to break down what the passage of the Troubles Bill really means—and why the political ground may be shifting beneath it. The Government pushed the Bill through Parliament. But the reduced majority, notable absences, and growing pressure from veterans at constituency level tell a different story. This episode covers: Why the vote result may mask a deeper political problem The rise in veteran engagement with MPs and local communities The gap between “law” and “justice” in legacy cases Questions over the Government’s strategy and motivations The role of the Republic of Ireland and wider political alignment What the proposed amendments do—and do not—change Why momentum among veterans is now building This is not just about Northern Ireland. It is about how a country treats those it sent to fight—and what happens when that contract begins to fray. The discussion is direct, grounded in experience, and focused on what comes next. Watch, listen, and decide. #JusticeForVeterans #TroublesBill #OperationBanner #Veterans #Lawfare #NorthernIreland #UKPolitics #OneMoreMission
