Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer will address the public inquiry into the Southport attack, where Axel Rudakubana, 18, admitted to murdering three young girls and other charges. Starmer criticized the state’s failure to protect the victims. Conservative shadow home secretary Chris Philp and Home Secretary Yvette Cooper highlighted unanswered questions and agency failures. Rudakubana, known to authorities, had been referred to the Prevent programme. A public inquiry and Prevent Learning Review are underway to address these issues and implement reforms.
