Burnham gets the message at Hillsborough memorial service

CULTURE Secretary Andy Burnham was heckled when he read out a message from Prime Minister Gordon Brown saying the victims of the disaster would never be forgotten.

A chant of “Justice for the 96” rained down from The Kop in protest at the Government’s apparent refusal to re-examine those responsible.

Merseyside-born Everton fan Mr Burnham later said: “There is obviously a strong sense of justice not done on Merseyside.

“I think today the country is finally seeing that the supporters and their families have been wronged very much.

“There are unresolved questions and the country perhaps has heard that more forcibly today than it has in recent times.”
