Ian Byrne: Why the country — not just Liverpool — needs the Hillsborough Law
“The ball’s in Keir Starmer’s court”, West Derby’s MP tells The Post
14 July 2025, Liverpool Post
…our big story today is an interview with Ian Byrne, whose latest attempt to introduce the “original” Hillsborough Law in parliament was voted down on Friday. The West Derby MP’s candour is on full display, with barbs aimed not just at the government and Keir Starmer, but the establishment and vested interests who have thwarted justice and accountability again and again. Byrne also explained how the “duty of candour” and promise of legal parity clauses in the original version of the bill could help victims of other famous scandals — such as the Post Office affair — gain justice quicker.
