Latest statement from Liverpool City Region Mayor Steve Rotheram - Liverpool Incident
THIS afternoon the Liverpool City Region Mayor, Steve Rotheram, has issued this statement:- "As the facts from Monday's events become clearer, I want take a moment to thank those from across the country, and across the world, who've sent messages of support and solidarity. It's good to hear that most of those hospitalised are recovering well and we're grateful that the results of one man's irresponsible actions were not far, far worse. But even as the physical injuries heal, I'm sure that the mental scars will endure for many caught up in the Water Street incident. Such a magical day became memorable for all the wrong reasons. But I want everyone to know that support is out there; and I'm not just talking about in the coming days and weeks; but for however long it takes. The response from so many to such a shocking incident has shown the very best of our Region at a very difficult time. Scousers reacted, as I knew that they would, offering:- food and drink, warmth, somewhere to rest, even lifts across the country, and simple gestures like somewhere to charge phones or to help contact loved ones. As the injured recover and the City returns to normality, I hope that in time people will remember a spectacular parade of colour and joy. Thank you once again for those that assisted in whatever capacity and from wherever you come from because you encapsulated the true spirit of this place that we're so lucky to call home."
