Andrew Evans, TB Chairman: β€œWhilst news the first ten infected blood victims have finally been paid compensation, Sir Brian Langstaff, in the Inquiry's Second Report told the goverment to have paid victims by end 2023. 100 have died waiting. This is nothing to celebrate.

Catching up with @PrideOfBritain awards - so glad to see the award going to @CoderMonkey Michelle Tolley @JasonEvansF8 for their campaigning for victims of the #InfectedBloodScandal
In the 1970s and 80s, an estimated 30,000 people across the UK were unknowingly involved in the infected blood scandal - and tonight, three of the campaigners were honoured at the Pride of Britain Awards. Andy Evans, Michelle Tolley and Jason Evans were given our 'Special Recognition' Award. πŸ† @DailyMirror @TSB #prideofbritain

Good to see Labour’s @patmcfaddenmp calling on the gov’t to pay compensation to the victims of the contaminated blood scandal #bloodydisgrace
Does @patmcfaddenmp agree with @AndyBurnhamGM that people should face #jail over the #infectedblood scandal? #KayBurley SS

πŸ‘‡ The survivors of the contaminated blood scandal have been treated with contempt by gov’ts of all stripes for more than five decades. Trust is in short supply. Surely @JohnGlenUK you can see this is unhelpful and will only add to the anguish people feel as they wait for justice
Desperately important Lords debate scheduled (too late) on 30th to vote on Infected Blood Compensation, at around 8pm. We need Peers to stay and support these amendments to the Victims & Prisoners Bill, particularly 119HA. Please repost tagging Peers asking for their support.

The concern is that there's not time to properly debate these amendments to ensure they meet Sir BL's recommendations and our community's needs. And that any voting will be biased because being late in the day means less peers present to support us. That feels like sabotage.

Senior doctors working in British hospitals and medical centres had been warned that the infected products β€” factor VIII β€” were dangerous but deliberately administered the experimental treatments on β€œvirgin haemophiliacs” to test whether they were safe
