0:00.0 | Hello everyone, welcome to MNTV. I'm Steeho. I'm joined by Charlotte Tennessee for this very special episode where we're speaking about Hillsborough Law. |
0:07.6 | Charlotte's dad, Jimmy, was one of the 97 people who were unlawfully killed at Hillsborough back in 1989. |
0:14.1 | Since the inquests have come out, Charlotte's been part of a team who have been calling for the introduction of a Hillsborough law. |
0:21.3 | Charlotte, thanks for joining us. |
0:23.1 | Can you just let us know what is the Hillsborough law and what is it that you guys are trying to achieve? |
0:28.6 | So a Hillsborough law is made up of different elements in, you know, if we were to sit here and talk about it in fall, we'd be here all day. |
