Episode 1250: Why did Soldier F’s £4.3m legal bill cost so much?

The legal bill for the defence of Bloody Sunday murder accused Soldier F has been revealed as a whopping £4.3 million after MP Colum Eastwood lodged a parliamentary question about the publicly funded fees.


Eastwood has described the figure as "sickening" while pointing out that the families of those murdered and wounded had to rely on the generosity of a law firm working for free and others who offered their support and friendship.


Nicola speaks with Belfast Telegraph's Allison Morris about the case that continues to divide opinion in Northern Ireland.
