"Mr McMurray would have met a harrowing death and he is a victim - as is his daughter who grew up without a father.

"I support most things to do with Titanic so long as it is respectful to those who lost their lives that fateful night.

"We will have a service to remember those who died and mourn the impact it had on the lives of survivors or relatives of the dead and lay wreaths on the tide at Solway.

"I think that is the correct way to remember Titanic."

The RMS Titanic set off for its maiden voyage to New York from Southampton, but Liverpool was her registered home port and many of the crew members, including Ismay and Captain James Smith, were from the city.
