Veterans slam MPs' repeal of Troubles immunity on GB News
Veterans protest the repeal of legal immunity for troops who served in Northern Ireland's Troubles.
On 21 January 2026, British Army veterans stormed GB News studio to protest the UK Parliament's decision to repeal a conditional‑immunity provision that had shielded soldiers who served during the Troubles. The MPs' motion, passed in Westminster, lifts legal protection that has kept former troops from prosecution for actions between 1969 and 1998. The veterans described the repeal as betrayal, shouting “Stabbed our community in the back.” GB News captured the exchange live, with commentators noting the vote's implications for Northern Irish supporters and former combatants. The debate highlights the long‑standing debate over the legacy of the Troubles and the balance between justice and reconciliation.
