    Alexander,

    2,500 victims of IRA use of Libyan-supplied Semtex have tried to obtain compensation and been fobbed off by the previous government's attitude to Libya.

    From Sunday Times, 6 Sept 2009

    "The UK government does not consider it appropriate to enter into a bilateral discussion with Libya on this matter," the prime minister wrote to lawyers last November, while insisting trade was only one of several factors. "Bilateral co-operation is now wide-ranging on many levels, particularly in the fight against terrorism," he said. "I believe it is in all our interests for this co-operation to continue." Bill Rammell, his ministerial colleague, wrote to a campaigner for IRA victims emphasising Libya's contribution to Britain's "secure energy future".
