I interviewed Steve Rotheram today, MP for Liverpool Walton, for the documentary.
Steve gave an emotional and speech in the house of Commons last month, in which he called for full disclosure of all papers to the Hillsborough Independent Panel.
Most of the interview will be held back for the documentary, but I have released a very short clip here in which Steve talks about the “generosity of spirit” shown by the people of Sheffield in the immediate aftermath of the disaster. It was one of the silver-linings on an otherwise dark, dark cloud of a day.
I am looking to interview people who were living in Leppings Lane in April 1989, because I want this story to be on record. Please click here for more information if you can help.
