Docklands IRA victim gets support from PM

The group are seeking compensation from Libya and its leader Colonel Gadaffi for allegedly supplying semtex to the Irish terrorist group.

Jonathan said that while the Prime Minister gave no assurances to the group at Wednesday's meeting, he listened to their stories and was supportive of their campaign.

Jonathan said: "I think he is definitely behind us. He didn't have to meet us but he did.

"He said things like 'where there's a will there's a way'.

"It was a very encouraging meeting."

The Docklands bombing at Marsh Wall killed two of Jonathan's friends, Inam Bashir and John Jeffries, when a truck was exploded outside the newsagents they worked in.

Jonathan said he and his fellow campaigners would continue their fight for justice.

He said: "We're not going away. We're going to keep on going. But after all that's happened we have already achieved something by bringing this to the public's attention.

"We must not forget our two friends who died that night."
