      Hi Folks,

      On this day of remembrance we wanted to share with you two articles written last year about Hillsborough and its aftermath.

      The Point is an online magazine that looks at left politics, culture, science and international issues.

      Thanks...The Editorial Board.

      Hillsborough - The Politics Behind the Smears
      Whilst the life was being squeezed from supporters in pens 3 and 4, a lie was being born in the control room. A vicious, scandalous, despicable lie that haunted the families, survivors and people of Liverpool for 23 years.

      Interview -
      Neil McDougall, 45, is a born and bred Liverpudlian now living in London and is the father of four children. He has been a Liverpool fan since the age of five and, aged 22, was at Hillsborough on April 15th, 1989 – the day on which 96 of Neil’s fellow Liverpool fans went to a football match and never returned home.
