Anniversary of Kingsmill Massacre

That this House notes with sustained sadness the 47th Anniversary of the Kingsmill Massacre and remembers the ten Protestant workmen that were brutally murdered and the one who survived but was subject to eighteen gun wounds; underlines that this massacre has been described as one of the deadliest mass shootings of the Troubles; highlights the 2011 report by the Historical Enquiries Team that concluded the responsibility of the Provisional IRA in carrying out this atrocity despite being on a ceasefire; further highlights the sheer malice of this shooting where it has been noted that 136 rounds were fired in less than a minute and a single shot was delivered to each victims head as a final act of evil; sends deepest sympathies to the families of those impacted; further highlights that the perpetrators have never been named let alone brought to justice despite the pleas of survivors and families; and reaffirms that these men will not be forgotten and their deaths will not be whitewashed.
