A CONTROVERSIAL pro-independence blogger came under fire yesterday over comments made about the disaster.

Stuart Campbell, who runs Wings Over Scotland, was previously criticised for claiming Liverpool fans were partly at fault over the deaths of the victims.

In 2012, the blogger insisted that “every single solitary person who died at Hillsborough was killed by Liverpool fans”.

He added: “If nobody pushes, nobody dies.”

Campbell also wrote a blog defending his claim and complaining about “the unending, maudlin obsession of the club’s fans” with the disaster.

But when asked on Twitter about the verdict yesterday, he said: “My thoughts are that anyone trolling for a reaction on it can go and get f***ed.”

Asked if his views had changed since 2012, he said: “No” and vowed to block those “trolling” him.

Twitter users urged him to apologise. Asked by the Record if he would retract his comments, Campbell replied: “No.”
