The Chinook Justice Campaign
@chinookjustice.bsky.social
We are the families of those who died on June 2nd 1994 when an RAF Chinook crashed on the Mull of Kintyre. The Ministry of Defence has locked away the files for 100 years. We want access, answers, accountability & a public inquiry. What is being hidden?
After 18 months of asking, we've finally been granted a meeting with ministers. Like buses, not 1, not 2 but 3 MoD ministers have come along at once, plus the Victims Minister.
Our families are looking forward to finally being heard by
@DefenceHQ
next month.

Today we remember all the brave men and women who gave their lives to protect others - both in war and in peacetime, whether on active duty or not.

Thank you to all the MPs who raised our case in the @houseofcommons.parliament.uk last night during the #hillsboroughbill debate and to @sorchaeastwood.bsky.social
who said our case should be the "test case" for the government's commitment to duty of candour on public bodies. #chinookjustice

A very happy 96th birthday to our most senior campaigner - John Dockerty, whose son Chris was killed in the 1994 crash. Still fighting for answers and supporting our campaign to get justice and the truth about his son's death - while blowing out his candles. #chinookjustice

For the 2nd time in as many days, a government minister has described our case as "serious" - also describing the "devastating" impact on our families still searching for the truth. Progress? or coincidence?

We received an apology from @defencehq.bsky.social
and John Healey's office after being turned away from the MoD last week, unable to deliver our letter to the Def Sec.
We wait to find out when we can re-deliver it - and have again requested a face-to-face meeting.

The defence minister Alistair Carns has offered to brief MPs in private on our case. He’s refused to meet us. We think that has all the hallmarks of a dodgy briefing against us. Here’s our letter in full: #chinookjustice
