Southport parents speak out

THE families of two girls killed in the Southport stabbings have called for a public inquiry to bring accountability, and have said they hope other children can be protected.

In an interview yesterday with ITV’s Good Morning Britain, the parents of Elsie Stancombe, seven, and six-year-old Bebe King spoke about their memories of the girls who, along with nine-year-old Alice da Silva Aguiar, were murdered by Axel Rudakubana at a Taylor Swiftthemed dance class in the Merseyside town on July 29 last year.

Last month, the Government announced a public inquiry after 18-year-old Rudakubana was sentenced for murdering the three girls and attempting to murder 10 other people, including eight children.
