Prof Phil Scraton, who led the Hillsborough Independent Panel’s research team, refused the honour in protest “at those who remained unresponsive” to efforts for truth and justice after the tragedy.

Fuck the police

It amazes me they'd offer something so fucking establishment to anyone involved with Hillsborough.

If be tempted to accept it just to tell her to fuck off when I got there.

If they want to genuinely honour the campaign for justice and the fans who died at Hillsborough then stripping the honours from any of the cunts who contributed to the disaster or to the cover up would be a good start I reckon.
