A STUDY of new evidence from the Hillsborough football ground disaster has been ordered by Home Secretary and Blackburn MP Jack Straw.

The families of the 96 Liverpool fans who died in the crush were far from happy with the results of the inquiry and inquest and have maintained ever since that vital evidence was held back.

The air must be cleared once and for all.

We need a hearing which examines every aspect of the disaster, studies every inch of film footage and takes into account medical evidence that was not put forward at earlier sittings.
