What would he have made of that? What ,more importantly ,would he have made of the other 49000 still being denied justice? Time for action indeed!

Turings of course remains the only posthumous one. These pardons-or preferably exonerations -should be AUTOMATIC. Wipe the record of all of those who under todays law would have committed no crime. Be they alive or dead. Is that REALLY so difficult to organise?
