I was honoured to be at Anfield to pay tribute to the 97 who were unlawfully killed at Hillsborough. Their families and campaigners have fought with extraordinary courage and dignity for decades, and this law is a powerful step towards lasting justice and accountability. #JFT97 #YNWA

I'm pleased the Law Commission will take forward work to ensure perpetrators of such harrowing crimes can be punished - helping bring some closure and healing to grieving families.
12.09.2025 13:40 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0It is devastating enough to imagine the horror of finding out a loved one has been murdered, but discovering what happened to their body can cause unspeakable and enduring agony to victims' families.

I am deeply saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Hefin David MS.
Hefin was a dedicated and passionate representative for Caerphilly, whose commitment to his community and our Labour movement was evident in everything he did.
Iโm so pleased to see the UK Labour Government announce an inquiry into Orgreave.
My dad was there. He saw what happened with his own eyes.
Since being elected in 2019, Iโve been pushing for this inquiry, and Iโm so glad itโs finally happening.

No family should ever be denied dignity and compassion in the aftermath of such tragedy.
As Minister for Victims & Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls, Iโm committed to ensuring victims & their loved ones are truly heard & supported at every stage of the justice process.
Earlier this week, I had a deeply moving meeting with families who have experienced unimaginable pain in losing their loved ones. I want to thank them for their openness in these difficult conversations.
