Cliff Richard bores on about gay rumours and rockstar wreckers Sir Cliff Richard OBE is a man of mystery. Rumours about his sexuality and other areas of his life abound on the Internet and in an interview for an Australian television channel last Friday, he again tried to dispel them.

Elsewhere, what went on at Elm Guest House has been effectively swept under the carpet. With only one MP, Zac Goldsmith, courageous enough to speak out about the appalling things that occurred there at the hands of powerful VIP abusers, it seems the prognosis of the Prince of Wales’ other one-time friend, the late Sir Jimmy Savile, is proving true – In Theresa May Britain, the little people never get justice.
