@andyburnham the lies & cover ups that happened with infected blood continue to this day. To be silent is to be complicit. When are you going to acknowledge that the community are still in the trenches 30 months AFTER the conclusions of the blood inquiry? When will you help?
@andyburnham PM you stated at the Infected Blood inquiry :
That the government’s response over the decades was primarily driven by a “fear of financial exposure” rather than the needs of victims.
Is this why you will not recognise financial losses for education and job prospects. Children were exposed to a multitude of viruses through factor 8 on every dose. F8 contained a 100% transmission of HCV.
Not a single haemophiliac has been compensated for the medical negligence at the hands of the state. @DHSCgovuk knew the risk when moving to larger pools. Findings in the report explicitly criticises authorities for “failing to enforce rigorous donor selection criteria”.
@fionatwycross
How can a child fighting multiple rounds of HCV be expected to achieve their full education potential. Add to that the stigma that was rife in the 80s & 90s exacerbated by the government “dont die of ignorance” campaign. The answer is they didn’t. We ask that you sit down with haemophiliac campaigners / victims and societies who lived through this horrendous time.

@RishiSunak @Jeremy_Hunt @JohnGlenn @PennyMordaunt can you name 20 names of infected blood victims who’ve died waiting for compensation?Can some minister ,reporter or journalist ask government to @RishiSunak if he’s actually personally read the infected blood compensation report

2) 'As quickly as possible' is not good enough, it's too vague and you know it. A solid timeline is needed. Since May 2024 the community have been fobbed off and stalled. Enough is enough. @IBCA_UK
had a meeting yesterday where some attendees were falling asleep! @JohnHealey_MP

@andyburnham at the infected blood inquiry you affirmed that the UK Government had “comprehensively failed the victims of infected blood”.
You have compounded this trauma by your lack of response to the letters that were handed in by Trusts and campaigners.
You simply cannot rewrite the narrative, and harm that was shown to this community by ignoring us.

When giving evidence directly to the inquiry @andyburnham offered a personal apology for the systemic delays in addressing the disaster:
“I would like to say sorry to everybody for being to slow to act. I wish I’d done things sooner. I do, I really do”
We are still waiting for a response from the letters handed into no. 10. Your silence is deafening!

Infected Blood Inquiry : Accusations of a “Criminal Cover-Up”
@andyburnham has been one of the most vocal political figures calling for legal accountability, describing the actions of authorities in stark terms:
“I believe that this scandal amounts to a criminal cover-up on an industrial scale”.
Recommending legal consequences for those responsible.
@fionatwycross @UKHouseofLords @cabinetofficeuk James Quinault Robin Healey @UKParliament Louise Haigh
Our PM made this comment. He has since been silent. Ignoring campaigners, societies and trusts who wrote into him.
Is this what we want from our Prime Minister!

Used his last speech as an MP to demand an inquiry into a “criminal cover-Up on an industrial scale” over the historic use of contaminated blood.
“Knowing what I know, and what I believe to be true, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I left here without putting it on the official record”.
What happened to all that evidence you gallantly stood and declared would be handed to the police if government failed to act?
We have not had prosecutions for a product that should not have been in use F8. For the risks knowing took with haemophiliacs lives and for using a vulnerable cohort for research. Most of whom were children.

They knew this was the big cover up from the beginning.
The question they must have had was "How can we still keep this part of the horrors inflicted on this group under the public radar?"
The answer was "It's easy really, we highlight the HCV virus damages only, Not route of infection".
Haemophilia holocaust swept under the carpet again.
Easy really wasn't it @cabinetofficeuk @IBCA_UK @IBCA_CEO_UK @andyburnham
The sad part was the @HaemoSocUK just let this happen to us.
Shame on you all.
I'm a great believer in karma or do them spells really work 🤔

Sir Brian concluded the following re Factor VIII:-
Lack of rigorous standards : rather than suggesting F8 should have bypassed regulation, the report explicitly criticises authorities for failing to enforce rigorous donor selection criteria, failing to restrict plasma pool sizes and failing to properly scrutinise products made from paid doners.
@fionatwycross @GOVUK
@cabinetofficeuk
Is this why the cabinet office overseen by James Quinault and their very well paid legal firm chose to ignore route of infection and thus hide governments failings ??

@andyburnham you was very vocal at the inquiry have you now been silenced!
