Govt: Hillsborough families have created ‘lasting legacy’
The Government has stopped short of introducing a Hillsborough Law called for by campaigners in its response to a report into the experiences of the bereaved families.
Former bishop of Liverpool the Right Rev James Jones set out 25 learning points in his report The Patronising Disposition of Unaccountable Power, published in November 2017.
Justice Secretary Alex Chalk told MPs the Hillsborough families have “created a lasting legacy” that is “a tribute to their loved ones.” He also apologised for the delay in the government’s response to Mr Jones’ report.

Labour's Darren Jones has criticized the prime minister for "not prioritising" the smoking ban in the final week of parliament. Rishi Sunak said he was "disappointed" his bill banning young people from ever being able to smoke legally will not pass before the general election.
The Tobacco and Vapes Bill is not included in the legislation being rushed through by MPs ahead of Parliament shutting down on Friday. "If we win the election on July the 4th, we will be setting out our own legislative plans in a Labour King speech in due course and we will list our priorities at that time," Mr Jones said.

In a speech in front of the blue coach, the Prime Minister sought to draw dividing lines with Labour. He said the Tories are “the ones taking bold action, getting the planes off to Rwanda”, despite the Prime Minister confirming earlier in the campaign that no deportation flights are due to take off before the General Election on July 4.

The Tories have announced a pledge to give 30 towns £20 million, a plan that Labour has described as a “reckless, unfunded” commitment. The Conservatives have announced they would add the towns to their long-term plan for towns, taking the total number of towns in the programme to more than 100, and local people in each area will decide how the money will be used for long-term regeneration.
