US released secret UFO files, so why won't UK do the same?

Weeks ago, when the U.S. government dropped a batch of files on UFOs, a firestorm was kicked off.

Now, a leading paranormal investigator is demanding that the U.K. follow the lead and launch a probe into the mystery objects in Scotland.

The country, which is part of the United Kingdom, was once a hotspot for activity in the skies from unexplained aerial sightings.

Malcolm Robinson, in a note to the British government, said they should come out clean on the matter.

He pointed out the UK is far behind its ally, the United States, which is releasing footage and reports about UFOs.

“Over the past several years, the United States government, NASA, and the Pentagon have released numerous documents, reports, and video footage relating to unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), more commonly known as UFOs."

"These disclosures have generated worldwide headlines and have demonstrated that the American authorities acknowledge the existence of incursions into their airspace by objects that remain unexplained."

Robinson said he has joined hands with Billy Buchanan, who is a councilor from Bonnybridge, to call on several successive British prime ministers to launch an inquiry into UFOs.

However, none replied affirmatively.

Robinson, following a series of turn-downs, asked, “If the United States government is prepared to acknowledge unexplained incursions into its airspace and provide evidence to the public."

"Why does the British government continue to dismiss calls for greater transparency? Why is Westminster unwilling to examine a subject that has attracted serious attention from our closest ally?

At the end, Robinson said the British public deserves to know the reality behind the unexplained aerial sightings.

“We believe the British public deserves answers. The time has come for the UK government to follow the example set by the United States and undertake a thorough, open, and independent review of reported UFO activity within British airspace," he concluded.
