The interview in the Sun with the former ref whose career was ended by *that* video stinks. Wonder if they set about his life with private investigators and then bribed him to out himself? They’re rancid fuckers - one of the most abhorrent tactics in the tabloid media.

Calling Sadiq Khan's knighthood a "reward for failure" is a bit rich from the party that knighted Gavin Williamson and gave Chris Grayling a peerage.
