RISHI Sunak was confronted by the mother of a Manchester Arena bombing victim over delays to introducing a law in her son’s memory.
Figen Murray has been campaigning for tougher security measures at public venues after her son Martyn Hett was among the 22 killed in the 2017 suicide bombing at an Ariana Grande concert.
The Prime Minister told her, just hours before he called the General Election, that he would bring in Martyn’s Law before the parliamentary summer break.
Last week, the Conservative manifesto pledged to introduce the legislation to help protect against terror attacks. But on Wednesday, Ms Murray told Mr Sunak that “there has been nothing” since he promised her 18 months ago that he would “hurry up” and pass the law.
