https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/20...d-given-final-say-prosecution-british-troops/ I am not sure how this works but Boris Johnson is committed to stopping the prosecutions of British soldiers who served in Northern Ireland during the troubles, and I assume that it is easier for him to lean on the Attorney General than whomever is doing the job right now.
Someone just need to say "enough" and let it die...as coincidentally did the Irish say to our squaddies and a smattering of their own countrymen...
