Home Secretary Theresa May has praised the “extraordinary dignity and determination” of the Hillsborough families.

“The terrible events of Saturday 15 April 1989 shocked this country and devastated a community,” she said.

David Cameron also paid tribute in the Commons to the families whose search for justice “was met with hostility”.

Ms May said: “It is not possible for us to understand what they have been through.”
