For those mocking the PM for going on Gogglebox:
It's for Stand Up to Cancer.
For those mocking his tattoo:
It's the Manchester Bee, done after the Manchester Arena Attack, where 22 died and 100's more were injured.

There has to be a strong case now for Sky and other channels ceasing to broadcast Manchester City games live until their punishment has been decided. Their games are ghost games.

And honour all associated staff’s contracts. And give season ticket holder’s their money back. They should not be dragged into this debacle.
Do your jobs @premierleague - you’ve found @ManCity guilty of all 115 charges, making them the biggest cheats in football history. So now announce their punishment immediately, act on it, and save this season from being an irrelevant farce.

Who knows what City’s win even means? The Premier League is is limbo. What a mess.

All I’m saying is having a team that’s guilty of 114 financial charges with a manager giving fist pumps on the touchline and a supporter base singing ‘we’ll cheat when we want’ top of the league is a pretty terrible look for the @premierleague

Until Manchester City are sanctioned for their decade-long cheating every one of their goals and every one of their wins this season will be meaningless. The Premier League also remains hugely damaged for as long as this "sham" continues.

Liverpool 0 Manchester City 3 as Man City confirm they are shameless, without any decency & humility & really do not care abt being industrial scale cheats. This is a crisis of the Premier League and English public life much wider than one club or football.

What an absolute mess of a season, a complete farce. Are Manchester City in a title race or a relegation battle? Football is resilient, the PL will survive, City will survive, but this dispute is deeply damaging. The sooner the process - appeal/sanctions - decided the better.

Stomach churning to look at Maresca gloating and this lot staying on the pitch celebrating with their fans.

Until Manchester City are punished for nearly a decade of proven financial wrongdoing, every goal they score and every match they win this season will be meaningless. The Premier League’s credibility will continue to suffer for as long as this absolute farce is allowed to drag on.

Anfield playing "Sweet Little Lies" by Fleetwood Mac at the final whistle.

For the Premier League as an organisation, that was pretty much the worst possible outcome
The team found guilty of mass cheating winning after a highly controversial decision went in their favour, not for the first time this season
Integrity of the league hanging by a thread

There’s something utterly grotesque about this. The Man City fans and players celebrating the badge. Today’s success built on that £900m spent buying the Premier League. Aguerro-o-o? A sham.
