The Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham has won the Makerfield by-election, paving the way for a possible challenge to Sir Keir Starmer as Prime Minister. The public inquiry into the abuse of vulnerable people at Muckamore Abbey Hospital has found “profound and deeply troubling” failures in their care. Families have called for politicians to act. The Creeslough families have renewed their call for the Irish Government to establish a public inquiry into the explosion. We hear from the father of a 14-year-old girl who died in the explosion.
