Thank you for your support @tessamunt.bsky.social

Earlier today I asked a Question of MoD Ministers about the date on which the *first* documents relating to the Chinook Air Crash were locked down and why there appears to be no Ministerial oversight and responsibility when documents are closed to the public. #ChinookJustice

Thanks to the amazing Robert Burke who has been there from the beginning supporting his young colleagues against the wrath of the misguided & lying MOD at the time!!!

What do the FOI files reveal? Air Chief Marshall William Wratten digging deep to "close down" any discussion inside and outside the MoD, in the years after the crash. He'd wrongly blamed the pilots who were forced to fly an unairworthy helicopter. Here is the evidence:

This happened!! The granddaughter of one of our widows, Susan Phoenix, was just on a flight from Singapore. The passenger next to Erin was reading Susan's book about her husband Ian who’d have been 83 today. What are the chances ? A goosebumps Chinook coincidence. ❤️ (1/2)

Thanks to the @obantimes.bsky.social for covering our campaign win and the supportive coverage for so many years. www.westcoasttoday.co.uk/news/campaig...

So @primeministeruk.bsky.social has finally agreed to meet our families. Finally. Thanks to @tessamunt.bsky.social for raising our case in #PMQs today. And to all MPs who have supported our campaign #chinookjustice

I was delighted to have the opportunity to highlight the government’s continued poor treatment of the Chinook families in PMQs today and to hear the PM commit to a meeting. The Chinook should never have flown. The MoD needs to face up to this and treat the families with decency. #ChinookJustice

Thabk you @tessamunt.bsky.social for a great question and for all your support.

We had a win 🏆 Thanks to #prmomentawards and Anna Richardson for our Gold Award and a very special evening this week. Recognition for our campaign. Now we need the same from @defencehq.bsky.social One of our widows, Shan picked up the gong for us. #prmomentawards

Our thoughts today are with all those who lost loved ones in the Hillsborough Disaster and who are still being forced to fight for #HillsboroughLawNow www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The Prime Minister’s shameful treatment of the @chinookjustice.bsky.social families raises serious concerns about fairness, accountability and the duty owed to those who have lost loved ones in service to this country. We all need to support their fight for justice youtu.be/ndy4xK75Rro?...

"The MoD are being deceitful, evasive and ignoring the evidence. I would implore them to do the decent thing.. an independent inquiry into the crash. I feel totally disgusted" Gaynor Tobias, whose husband John died on ZD576. Please support her -write to your MP. #chinookjustice

"I am grieving but I am angry. These people are despicable. We will get answers whether @defencehq.bsky.social likes it or not." Nicola Rawcliffe, whose father John died last month and brother Chris died in the crash. #chinookjustice @alcarns.bsky.social @louisesandherjones.bsky.social

On Wed, we met minister @alexdaviesjones.bsky.social and filed a formal complaint about offensive @defencehq.bsky.social statements on the crash. She promised to take it up directly with defence ministers. Today the MoD repeats the offensive statement in @yorkshirepost.co.uk 😡😡😡

Please write to your MP asking that @primeministeruk.bsky.social intervene, since the MoD appears to be falling back on the lies it's told for 32years. Please support our families as they demand truth, transparency and justice. #chinookjustice #ministryofdeceit

We thought we were making progress with @defencehq.bsky.social. Clearly we were wrong. Having promised to review our evidence and ongoing dialogue, instead the #MinistryofDeceit issued a media statement without informing us. So disrespectful of our families. www.express.co.uk/news/uk/2189...

Delighted to win an award in a room full of the best independent creative agencies in the world at the #IndieAwards. I'm not a creative. I'm a PR guy. I'm thrilled and dedicate this award to 29 victims of the Chinook crash, their families & advisor David Hill. www.uknewsgroup.co.uk/tim-reid-med...

Thrilled to have been shortlisted at the #PRMomentsAwards. Hundreds of hours of pro bono work for @chinookjustice.bsky.social highlight the strategic, ethical and democratic value of PR, not as promotion, but as a mechanism for accountability and justice. www.prmomentawards.com/the-prmoment...

Visiting the RUC Memorial Garden yesterday in Belfast, Ann Magee, whose husband died on ZD576, along with Lisa Fitzsimons, whose dad died. They were joined by Alex Easton MP and colleague Peter Wilson.

Ironically, our families will meet the UK victim's minister this week. Ironic timing because John was a victim, as was Chris and the others on board. So are our surviving families. Victims of a cover up which wouldn't have been possible, if the #hillsboroughlaw was in place.

Our eldest Chinook campaigner John Dockerty has died.💔He was 96 and a wonderful character. He spent more than 30 years seeking justice for his son Chris, who died in the 1994 crash. Our thoughts are with his family. www.the-independent.com/news/uk/home...

We are feeling positive after our meeting with the victims minister Alex Davies-Jones yesterday. She has promised to take up our complaint about MoD statements on the crash, with ministers there - and to raise our case with the PM. Read more here www.chinookjusticecampaign.co.uk/news/victims...

It's Valentine's Day ❤️next Saturday. What will you be doing? We've made a film. It features some of our widows speaking publicly for the very first time. WARNING: It's powerful, and emotional. ❤️❤️❤️Here's a peek. #chinookjustice #ValentinesDay2026

Where was defence minister @lukepollard.bsky.social 31 years ago? Seems he might have circumvented 31 years of cover-up over ZD576 Perhaps he'sbeen reading our late technical expert David Hill's books- one of them entitled The Inconvenient Truth" #chinookjustice www.thetimes.com/article/c948...

If you want to read David's book on the scandals about MoD equipment, procurement and lack of safety and airworthiness - you will find it here: www.amazon.co.uk/Inconvenient...

According to the Times he says - “There must be no hiding place for inconvenient truths, for defects and safety concerns”. He said: “To be clear: we will back Ajax or we will scrap it because there is no place for kit we cannot rely on as we prepare for war fighting”.

Furry #campaigncat and #campaigncockapoo have been watching the numbers tick up.... from 15k to nearly 50k - but we need 2,886 more people to reach our goal. change.org/JusticeForTh... Can you help get us over the line this weekend. If so our pets will be pawty pleased! 🐾🐾🐾

We're getting close to our goal... we just need 3000+ more signatures before we go to Downing Street next week. Please, please, please sign and share and help us - after 31 years - to get justice for our loved ones. #chinookjustice change.org/JusticeForTh... Here's Lisa's story:

A message of thanks from John Dockerty, who is 95 years old & the father of Major Christopher Dockerty who was killed in the 1994 Chinook crash. John thanks everyone supporting our #chinookjustice campaign to get the truth about why his son and 28 others died. change.org/JusticeForTh...

This is great ! 👍🏼

In case you missed it - strong words from the former minister David Davis MP on our calls for truth & transparency. “To put documents under seal is absolutely extraordinary and does indicate a cover up,” and says data protection excuse is “ridiculous” #coverup #chinookjustice (I/v in 3 clips)

Over on the other platform which shall not be named... Andy Tobias, who was 8 at the time of the crash, has been busy responding to the Defence Minister Al Carns - who posted a Father's Day message. Please watch our film youtu.be/_NvNe36S_WM #chinookjustice #fathersday

It's been quite a day for us. Thanks to the 200+ media outlets who've covered our story today, in the UK, Ireland and the US. Here's Andy Tobias, who was 8 years old when his dad was killed in the Chinook crash, on BBC Reporting Scotland. #chinookjustice

Listen to Andy Tobias and Lucy Sparks on BBC Radio today explaining why they are so determined to get the files on the crash - which the MoD has sealed for 100 years - opened up and for a judge-led public inquiry. Their interview is here: www.chinookjusticecampaign.co.uk/campaign #chinookjustice

We have written an open letter to all MPs and peers in parliament urging them to back our campaign. A Government which believes in transparency must surely see that this should be properly investigated with no stone left unturned? www.chinookjusticecampaign.co.uk/news/open-letter-to-mps-and-peers

We loudly applaud Veterans Minister Alistair Carns and 3 other ex Special Forces colleagues for their record-breaking ascent of Everest, and for raising money for bereaved children. Many of us in the Chinook Justice campaign are bereaved children too. Here's Andy Tobias with a message for Mr Carns.

Mr Carns has turned down the Chinook Justice Campaign's request for a meeting, and denied us a public inquiry into the circumstances surrounding the crash 31 years ago - although the files have been locked away for 100 years. Who is being protected?

Lawyers for the families of 29 military and civilian intelligence specialists who were killed when an RAF Chinook helicopter crashed on the Mull of Kintyre in 1994 have said they will “consider all legal options” to find out how their relatives died. rozenberg.substack.com/p/chinook-fa...
