Ex-Sheffield Wednesday club secretary fined £6,500 over Hillsborough turnstile health and safety failings

A FORMER Sheffield Wednesday club secretary has been fined £6,500 at Preston Crown Court for a health and safety offence related to turnstile arrangements on the day of the Hillsborough disaster.

During the trial, stadium safety expert John Cutlack told the court there were not sufficient turnstiles for fans on the day. Eight character references for Mackrell were read to the jury, including statements from former England caretaker boss Howard Wilkinson and Roy Hattersley, now Baron Hattersley, the Sheffield-born former Labour MP and now life peer.

He absolutely has the right to refuse to answer questions.....but what a complete and utter arrogant bastard.

Black students are failing to apply to Cambridge 'due to lack of Afro-Caribbean hairdressers'Prof Virgo, who is a QC and expert in criminal law as well as Cambridge’s senior pro-vice-Chancellor for education, said that this revelation sent a “really important” message to the university they dont want to go to Cambridge because there's a lack of afro Caribbean hairdressers, if i was head of Cambridge i wouldn't want them if they put the state of their hair above education that would say it all for me or perhaps they haven't got the grades to get in. Perhaps it's parents and schools, not universities, that should be educating pupils to understand that a worthwhile and fulfilling life need not depend on the proximity of barbers. This is just rubbish. I doubt that anyone Black said that. There're at least 2 Black barbershops & a saloon in Cambridge. That's a lot for a small town. There're also many black students Cambridge_Uni I doubt that any of them thought about their hair before applying. I didn't!
