Around 4,000 supporters marched on Downing Street today as part of the March 4 Justice.
A petition has been signed by 40,000 people in the last 7 weeks and this was delivered to 10 Downing Street by five of the families who lost their loved ones in April 1989.
Barry Thomson, chair of the March 4 Justice group which organised the event said:
“There were some very emotional scenes, especially when the families gave the boxes of petitions in to 10 Downing Street.
“We have had so much support from people in Liverpool, the UK and we have also have 480 letters of support from 67 different countries worldwide.
“Those who lost their loved ones said it was a positive thing handing in papers showing so much support for their plight.
“We gathered 40,000 signatures in just seven weeks, it has been a mad time.
“Let’s just hope this encourages the government to realise its obligation to the families of the 96, the fans, the club and the city [Liverpool] as a whole.”
The campaigners want around 300 boxes of information on the tragedy to be publically released and the events after 3:15pm, a mere 9 minutes after the match was abandoned, to be examined. A previous inquest refused to look at events past this time.
This country, this government, the media, everything about this country”great britain” theres no great at all here,. I couldn’t give two sh**s for England and its bent way of running the country and running its policies, give justice to all these people.
Love to all the people who have suffered, hope to all those that hope for justice, god bless you all.
