Sir Keir Starmer has said “nothing will be off the table” as the government today launched an inquiry into the Southport attacks of July 2024. Yesterday, Axel Rudakubana, 18, pleaded guilty at Liverpool Crown Court to the murders of Bebe King, 6, Elsie Dot Stancombe, 7, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, 9. The inquiry will investigate how the state failed to identify the risk posed by Rudakubana, who was referred three times to anti-extremism programme Prevent amid concerns over his fixation with violence.
