New photo Theresa May urged to end ‘abhorrent’ investigations into Northern Ireland veterans

THERESA May was yesterday challenged over what she was doing to end “abhorrent” investigations into Northern Ireland military veterans.

Tory former Army officer Johnny Mercer warned the “vast majority” of the country is against seeing former soldiers “dragged through the courts” over events linked to The Troubles.

He asked the PM to spell out the action she was taking, but she did not go into specifics.

Mrs May replied: “As I’ve made clear, the current system in Northern Ireland is flawed.

“It isn’t working for soldiers, for police officers or for victims — a group, in fact, which includes many soldiers and police officers as well.”

Mr Mercer later tweeted: “Her answer was not good enough. We keep going.”

The PM acknowledged that terrorist murders from during the Troubles are being investigated, after she claimed “terrorists are not being investigated”, earlier this year.

In July over 30 Tory MPs supported a proposal for a 20-year time limit on reopening investigations into members of the armed forces who served during the Troubles.

Mrs May said: “We owe a vast debt of gratitude to the heroism and bravery of the soldiers and police officers who upheld the rule of law, and themselves were accountable to it – and that is always something that has set them apart from the terrorists, who during the Troubles were responsible for the deaths of hundreds of members of the security forces.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
