The right-wing press targeted Lineker because he had the balls to speak out. Now it’s Gary Neville’s turn.
We need to be talking about flags and angry middle-aged white men. Well done Gary.

In particular, I asked him to outline how women across London can have confidence that they are being heard and believed when they approach a police officer.
