Keir Starmer announces new British energy company and Hillsborough law in pivotal pitch for Prime Minister

Sir Keir Starmer announced that a Labour government would create a new, publicly owned British energy company and committed to a Hillsborough Law in his pitch to be the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

In a keynote speech at Labour Party Conference in Liverpool, Sir Keir led with a commitment for a new Hillsborough Law, which families of the Hillsborough victims have been campaigning for.

The ECHO has also campaigned for the new law - also known as the Public Authorities (Accountability) bill, which will help bereaved families and aims to prevent further injustices where there is state involvement.
