Exclusive interview: The British state continues to avoid accountability over major scandals that cost lives, including the Hillsborough football disaster and the infected blood “calamity” that saw thousands contract fatal diseases, Andy Burnham has told the i Paper.

- The Mayor of Greater pledged to introduce the so-called Hillsborough Law “in its entirety” if he became Prime Minister as he accused the Government of “re-traumatising” victims of the contaminated blood scandal.

- In an interview marking the second anniversary of the Infected Blood Inquiry report, Burnham gave his “absolute support” to campaigners and criticised the Government for creating “new dividing lines” between victims and bereaved families through compensation rules.

- It comes as bereaved parents accused the Government of a cruel “cost-cutting exercise” after new compensation rules excluded the vast majority of parents who lost children to the infected blood scandal.

-As survivors of the worst treatment disaster in NHS history gathered at St Paul’s Cathedral on Tuesday for the first national memorial service, Burnham said he would “be with them every step of the way”, adding: “The fight is forever. There’s no justice until everyone’s got justice. My support for them will be absolute, whichever position I’m in.”

-The intervention comes as Burnham prepares for a return to Westminster in the forthcoming Makerfield by-election, backed by figures connected to some of Britain’s most high-profile justice campaigns. Families of Hillsborough victims are expected to campaign on his behalf, underlining Burnham’s long association with the fight for accountability after the 1989 football stadium disaster.
