Compensation Delay Kills Two a Week in Shame.

In the NHS, a scandal did unfold,
Infected blood, a story to be told.
Thousands died, a tragic, sad fate,
More than 3,000, a number to abate.

Their families suffered, in grief and pain,
As they waited for justice, and compensation to gain.
Tony Summers spoke out, with a voice so bold,
His son Paul died, his heart turned cold.

He was told to wait, till 2029's date,
But by then, he'll be 93, what a weight.
More people are dying, two a week, it's true,
Their claims are dying, as they wait for you.

Lynne Kelly spoke out, with a voice so clear,
People are dying, their claims disappear.
The IBCA said, they're doing their best,
But victims and charities, are not impressed.

They've been ignored for 40 years, it's a shame,
Their voices are loud, but still in the game.
The government set aside, £11.8 billion with care,
But the delay is long, and the wait is unfair.
