Hillsborough Law promised on anniversary

The proposed legislation would impose a legal 'duty of candour' on public servants, preventing the kind of institutional cover-ups that followed the 1989 tragedy.

Starmer stated he is 'personally committed' to delivering the law, which has been a long-standing demand of the victims' families.

The news coincided with the unveiling of a permanent memorial at Everton's new Hill Dickinson Stadium, honoring the Liverpool supporters who were unlawfully killed.

This move is seen as a significant step toward achieving justice and ensuring that such a tragedy can never be repeated.
