Sad news.

A four star general who also held a lot of high level government posts in addition to Secretary of State. All from a rather humble start in life.

RIP

Well sure, but so were many, if not most, of our 146k deaths. Doesn't stop the pantwetters blaming them all on Bozza of course.

Mr Hutchings was on trial for attempted murder in 1974 whilst serving in the army in Northern Ireland.
What was the point was of dragging a ill man(he had kidney failure)from Cornwall to Belfast for a trial ?

This is a shocking end of his life for Mr Hutchings.

Irish terrorists who murdered were released and some former terrorists were allowed into government.

Johnson promised to sort out this unfairness. Shame on him and his ministers. Credit to Johnny Mercer M.P. for fighting a seemingly lone battle on this.
