Michael Shields has been refused a pardon again from Jack Straw. His only crime was to be an English football fan abroad. It could have been any one of us. Go on, do something good today...give blood. No, write to your MP. Let's get this poor sod some justice.
Hi Shirehorse was wondering if you were here,i have been on my soapbox about this for a while now,we both kept bumping the thread on the old forum,i have signed online petitions etc,but was very angry last week as i feel this story got lost in the madness of all the other news stories,Ronnie Biggs,Michael Jacson etc,i have already been letter writing.
I was sure Jack Straw was going to release him,but for anyone not familiar with the story of Michael Shields please Google it and put yourself in his place,and imagine how his family are feeling,and show some support,
Maggie
