Southport MP Backs Hillsborough Law Now Campaign

Southport MP Patrick Hurley supports Hillsborough law.

I fully support the #HillsboroughLawNow campaign!
Hillsborough Law Now is a broad coalition of families, activists, leaders, and everyday people who want justice.
A Hillsborough Law Would:
Create a new legal duty of candour on public authorities and officials to tell the truth and proactively cooperate with official investigations and inquiries - bringing to an end the depressingly familiar pattern of cover ups and concealment.
Ensure victims of disasters or state-related deaths are entitled to parity of legal representation during inquests and inquiries.
This will mean that bereaved families can get public funding, just as public money is used to support Government and public authority lawyers.
