A dance teacher injured in the Southport attack has said Axel Rudakubana’s victims have scars “we cannot unsee”, as survivors gave their harrowing accounts of the day.

Leanne Lucas was overseeing a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport, Merseyside, on July 29 last year, when Rudakubana entered the building armed with a knife and attacked children and adults.
