We're backing the Every Action Has Consequences campaign

Nigel Evans, Conservative MP for Ribble Valley: Many years ago a friend of mine Mark Hall received a single punch in the face.

I’m 100 per cent behind the campaign. The fact is the person didn’t intend to kill him, but one stupid punch meant the end of his life.

Andrew Stephenson, Conservative MP for Pendle: I wholeheartedly support the campaign.

Drunken violence is a blight on our town centres and we need to do whatever we can together in order to help tackle that problem.

Jack Straw, Labour MP for Blackburn: It is a very, very important campaign.

It speaks volumes for the extreme humanity of Mr and Mrs Rogers and their family that they want this to be Adam’s memorial and not revenge.

Chief Supt Bob Eastwood, police commander: This campaign is borne out of the tragic death of a well-respected person who was clearly attacked for no reason.

Any initiative which helps the police to deal with violent crime comes with my blessing.

Coun Charlie Briggs, leader of Burnley Council: I fully back the campaign as we have to sort out the issue of alcohol-fuelled behaviour.

As former portfolio holder for community safety these issues are very close to my heart.

Coun John Slater, Blackburn with Darwen neighbourhoods chief: I would like to thank the Lancashire Telegraph.

I would urge anyone to think before you wade in with your fists to take a deep breath and consider living with the consequences of killing someone and serving a long prison sentence.
