Good morning. It was supposed to be a day of joy. Half a million people packed out the square mile to catch a glimpse of the Liverpool team that won the Premier League. Among the fans were families and children. Then a car ploughed into the crowd – turning a day of smiles and revelry into one of shock and horror.
At least 65 people, including children, were injured on Monday, with 27 people taken to hospital. Local authorities said four people were left “very ill”. Keir Starmer said the scenes were appalling, while the home secretary, Yvette Cooper, called the incident “shocking and horrendous”.
