The families of people killed during a mass shooting in Plymouth have accused the Home Office of putting lives at risk after the department failed to respond to a coroner’s inquiry calling for changes in gun laws.
The home secretary, Suella Braverman, the policing minister, Chris Philp, and chief constables were given until 3 May to respond to a detailed examination of gun laws by the Plymouth senior coroner, Ian Arrow, who had ruled that five people were unlawfully killed by Jake Davison.
