Meanwhile, responsibility for the PPE stockpile was ‘overly diffuse’ with ‘too many layers’ (see image). But ultimately, the Dept of Health & Soc Care ‘failed to ensure an efficient and effective structure which provided oversight and active management of the stockpile’ 8/

The Hillsborough Law is finally set to be approved by MPs. A big step towards creating a fairer society where the scales of justice are more evenly balanced. What an incredible legacy for the Hillsborough Families and all those who have campaigned to reach this moment.

Today we’ve written to the Foreign Secretary, urging her to reverse the decision to axe funding to the global pandemic fund. The Government had committed just 0.0004% of annual spending to global pandemic prevention. Now, even that has been cut. This decision must be reversed.

Misinformation and conspiracy theories about Covid vaccines are growing. They put lives at risk. The Covid Inquiry has found that vaccines were safe, saved millions of lives worldwide, and helped end the pandemic. These are the facts:

Tomorrow, the Covid Inquiry publishes its report on vaccines and therapeutics. Covid vaccines saved countless lives and helped end the emergency stage of the pandemic. The report must now drive urgent action to strengthen preparedness, tackle misinformation and ensure equal access to vaccines.

At 12pm tomorrow, the Covid Inquiry publishes its report on the pandemic's impact on our health system. Those who left the NHS chronically underfunded and unprepared must be held to account, and the findings must drive urgent action to make the NHS fit for the 21st century.

The likes of Matt Hancock continue to claim the NHS wasn't overwhelmed during the pandemic. Experts like Dr Kevin Fong exposed that myth during the inquiry hearings. On Thursday, the inquiry must be clear: years of austerity left the NHS overwhelmed and unprepared.

We stand united with all victims of state harm. It's time to put an end to cover-ups and the disgrace of victims waiting decades for justice. Enough delay. The Government needs to pass the Hillsborough Law now.

Covid-19 Bereaved Families For Justice UK @cbffjuk.bsky.social · 16/01/2026

The Government must not move forward with its plans to weaken the Hillsborough Law. If it does, MPs need to stand behind the victims of state cover-ups and injustice and vote for Ian Byrne MP's amendments. The Government promised THE Hillsborough law; MPs must now deliver it.

"The Inquiry, in its final module, must be able to look the bereaved in the eyes...to ask the most searching questions." In the last module examining the impact of Covid on people, the Inquiry plans to call only ONE bereaved witness. Bereaved families have been sidelined again.

Today at the Inquiry, Boris Johnson was confronted with overwhelming evidence that his government failed to plan for school closures prior to March 2020. He refused to accept it, claiming the issue ‘cropped up’. He’s still incapable of accepting the facts.

Boris Johnson accuses unions of "chuntering" about the safety of opening schools during the pandemic. But the Government’s failure to close schools turned classrooms into hotbeds of infection. The results were deadly for children and their families.

Gavin Williamson repeatedly ignored scientific advice, which warned that school closures might be necessary. Mr Sam Jacobs, for the TUC, asks why. Williamson responds by accusing the TUC of having a 'natural interest not to see schools delivering education'. Shameful.

It was obvious schools would need to close during the pandemic, and yet the Department of Education refused to prepare for it. Asked why, Gavin Williamson says he did not have the freedom to consult on what closures would look like. He was the Secretary of State for Education.
