Yes, sorry to all for this from a (not Scottish) Brit.
Marie-Claude, reservations about the guilt or innocence of Megrahi and Libya are not relevant here. If there was doubt, it should have been tested in court. The appeal which was coming up will not now occur. None of us know how that would have gone.
Releasing Megrahi on grounds of compassion was trashy and wrong. But not surprising, I’m sorry to say, knowing the state of the legal system in the UK.
