A genuine question. At 1245 this afternoon the PM told a grieving mother on the anniversary of her son’s death that he would introduce legislation (“before summer recess”) in her son’s name. How is that reconcilable with knowing he was about to call an election?
Let’s hope that Martyn’s Law gets mentioned today in the Kings speech. 5 years of incredible hard work and campaigning by Figen, Brendon and Nick to make the world a safer place. You are an awesome team @FigenMurray@MrBrendanCox & Nick Aldworth
@DavidRutley
Please support my wife Figen Murray and her work with Martyn’s Law and make a positive step in protecting the people of the UK. I have attached a link for anyone else wishing to write to their MP and ask the same.

Looking forward to speaking at the Parliament Select Committee today at 1430 about the role an Independent Public Advocate might have in improving the outcomes including mental health after a Major Incident

Nothing will ease the pain of the families of those killed during the cowardly terrorist attack at Manchester Arena.
It is my solemn commitment to the victims, survivors and their loved ones that we will learn from the lessons of this inquiry.
The Manchester Inquiry found that Event Healthcare Providers need to be regulated and that the Care Quality Commission is the appropriate to this. Furthermore the Department of Health should give urgent consideration to making this happen.I hope this happens soon @CQCpressoffice
'We're relieved that we've finally got some sort of answers on paper.'
@DocStuartMurray, stepfather of Martyn Hett who died in the Manchester Arena bombing, shares his feelings on the report about emergency services on the night.
@TomSwarbrick1
Honestly, it wasn’t a conspiracy theory. It really did happen. Although, according to some, I am an actor put in by the government to make the Arena Attack more plausible https://t.co/nxvwgur5TK
Tomorrow is the five year anniversary of the Manchester Arena Attack. Our new report from @survivors_a_t shows that mental health support for terror survivors still has gaping holes in it. Kids were left traumatised by the attack & left on waiting lists 🧵 https://t.co/nIgBAkeIOY
The state has a particular responsibility to ensure terror attack survivors get proper support. They have been attacked as a proxy for the state and that means the state has additional responsibilities. This is recognised in countries like France and Belgium, but not yet here.
@SiobhanMackenz6 Thank you for sharing your story. Just the kind of thing we have been trying to improve awareness of. We will push the government to acknowledge and adopt our charter and action changes
Big holes remain in the mental health support which people receive after a terrorist incident and people wait far too long for basic therapies. I am hoping the government adopt the new Victim Charter which SAT have presented to them and action the recommendations
