Starmer is expected to use last week in power to push through Hillsborough law

Keir Starmer is making a final push to pass the stalled Hillsborough law before he leaves office, aiming to provide stronger support for families seeking justice after major disasters. This bill seeks to create new offenses against officials who deliberately mislead the public or obstruct accountability, addressing long-standing issues around transparency and justice. This move is crucial as it could set a precedent for handling future disaster investigations and ensuring that families receive the justice and truth they deserve. The legislation's passage would mark a significant step in preventing future cover-ups.
