Well there is that. And trust me, I was spitting feathers whilst writing this. But I did make the case for Liverpool and all the clubs relegated who would have played City who really were mid-table at best. But also Stoke who I really feel for as their only ever FA cup final.

“Make money visible.” Gina Miller’s prescription for cleaning up politics came just as Channel 4 News was broadcasting an undercover investigation into Reform's political funding. Two events. One evening. And the two stories met in Clacton.

Please support this. Justice matters. Citizen voices matter. Powerful men must not be allowed to exploit, abuse and traffic women and girls. They should not walk away without consequence. It's not enough to know those men are no longer with us - the system that let this happen has to change.
