Published in June 2020, Opinions are expressed in these videos about the veracity of statements made by those involved in the 2017 Manchester Arena incident. All the opinions contained herein are not being expressed as factual claims. All the conclusions and assertions made concerning whether individuals have lied or have been untruthful are expressed purely as opinions. If people have lied in their media interviews I/we are not making any accusation that the participants have done "wrong" or broken the law. We are just expressing an opinion based on available evidence about whether we believe what they said is true or false. I/we do not advocate contacting or harassing anyone who was involved in the Manchester 2017 event. It is perfectly legal to have an opinion about whether somebody is telling the truth. And it is perfectly legal to express that opinion. In today's programme I will be screening the whole interview and looking at more 'victim' statements to determine if any of them are telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Genevieve has analysed statements from over 25% of the participants which is a large enough sample to derive a strong hypothesis about what most likely occurred on the night.
