Former police officer Norman Brennan joins Kevin O’Sullivan to discuss reports that the two brothers involved in the Manchester Airport police incident received £113,000 in taxpayer-funded legal aid. Brennan acknowledges that “even terrorists are entitled to a defence” under British law, but says the bill and outcome will leave a “large lump” in the public’s throat.  The pair also discuss the lasting impact on the police officers involved.
