Hillsborough is the only disaster that is openly mocked, no matter how many documentaries The Sun’s and the authorities narrative is repeated by football fans. Reason for this, nobody has ever faced any consequences bcos there isn’t a law against public accountability or lying.
Anyone who argues against the idea of teaching lessons about the truth and justice campaign around Hillsborough - just look at the state of some of the replies I’ve had over the weekend
It needs to happen now or it’ll get worse than these trolls

A spotlight needs shining on historic injustices that government continually drags their heels over.
It's never good enough that the state uses delaying tactics to attempt to bring down costs awarded by a legal process.
A clear example of why justice delayed is justice denied.
I joined over 100 cross-Party MPs & Peers in calling for the same urgency to be shown on infected blood compensation as now has on the Post Office Horizon scandal.
This is a cross-party call for urgent action to right this historic injustice.

As
@HillsboroughSu1
have stated. Think before you link Hillsborough to anything, every time you do, it triggers survivors and bereaved. It's hard enough still having no Justice, without random people using Hillsborough as a weapon.
Hillsborough is trending, all because of yesterday.
The 97, their families and us survivors have done nothing wrong. Why do people use Hillsborough as a weapon? It is hate speech and needs clamping down on by social media.

Just so we’re clear: if an opposition football manager says something you don’t like about your team, you can now say or sing whatever you like, and the news media will apparently present this logic absolutely uncontested.
