Stardust campaigner Antoinette Keegan has confirmed that she will contest the general election for the far-right National Party.

Ms Keegan was pulled out of the blazing venue in February 1981 but lost her sisters Mary (19) and Martina (16) in the fire. She became a leading figure in the campaign for justice for the 48 people who died that night, culminating in April's verdict that all had been unlawfully killed, which was followed by a state apology and a redress scheme which is currently being provided for in the Finance Bill.
