The 1993 murder of twoyear old James Bulger by two schoolchildren in Liverpool has been in the New Zealand headlines recently for two main reasons: firstly, because of the suggestion that New Zealand might be asked to host the newlyreleased murderers, and, secondly, because of the threats of revenge by vigilantes, infuriated by their release.Stephen May, living in Britain at the time, was horrified by the reaction to James murder. Very recently returned to England where he is living some thirty miles from Liverpool as Vicar of a local Anglican Church and some nine miles from Oldham, where race riots recently occurred and where the National Front candidate has just gained 5,000 votes in the General Election, Stephen revisits the case.
