"This is not about Hillsborough families, this is not about egos, this is about protecting the public from the corrupt!" #HillsboroughLawNow

Last night I welcomed the Hillsborough Law carry-over motion, which means we can keep the fight for the Hillsborough Law alive in Parliament. But it shouldn’t have come to this. Two anniversaries, a full Parliamentary session but still no Hillsborough law - it’s not good enough. We knew there’d be resistance from those who oppose transparency & accountability - and that’s why political courage and leadership matters. The PM promised, now deliver: Adopt my amendments. No carve-outs. No one is above the law. Get it done PM - we have waited long enough. #HillsboroughLaw #JFT97

“A lot of Starmer’s problem has been his inability to communicate with genuine authenticity and feeling…” CEO @jenniferdnadel explains why greater openness and empathy from the Prime Minister could play a crucial role in rebuilding trust and strengthening public support.
