Prime Minister snubs Birmingham Pub Bombings 50th Anniversary

Families of the victims of the Birmingham pub bombings say they’re disappointed the Prime Minister won’t be part of this years 50th memorial.

The Justice for the 21 campaign group says it’s been told Sir Kier Starmer won’t be able to attend the event, but Labour mayor Richard Parker will be there to represent him.

It's reported the Prime Minister has a clash in his diary.

Members of the campaign group have taken to social media to hit out at Starmer's decision to snub attending the event.

The 21st of November will mark 50 years since bombs in the city centre killed 21 people and injured 200.
