Eames Bradley payements scrapped?

| Readers 4

This is unconfirmed (as I did not hear the programme) but I am told that the Secretary of State has told the Nolan Show that the Eames Bradley £12,000 payments have been cancelled. Whilst this is clearly what the overwhelming majority of victims and members of society wanted this may as I have suggested before be a device to try to save the other equally repellent parts of the report.

The other issue is where this leaves Eames Bradley’s credibility, surely rock bottom though unless the SoS bins the whole report I suspect the rows will go on. As I have always said Eames Bradley was not fit for purpose.

Update: The BBC seem to be confirming the story and that the only thing being dropped so far is the payments.
