The families of 11 victims of the Manchester Arena Bombing tragedy have reacted to the third and final volume of the public inquiry into the attack on May 22, 2017. The inquiry concluded that there was 'a significant missed opportunity to take action' on the part of MI5 that might have prevented the murders at the Ariana Grande concert that tragic night.
Richard Scorer, principal lawyer at Slater and Gordon, who represented 11 of the families involved in the inquiry, said the failures highlighted in the report were 'unacceptable'.
One of two key pieces of intelligence about suicide bomber Salman Abedi - both of which weren't passed on to police by MI5 - 'gave rise to the real possibility of obtaining information that might have led to actions which prevented the attack', revealed the report today (Thursday, March 2).
