The family who got upgraded to First Class so Jeremy Corbyn could get a seat have said they would never go back to poverty class and now going to vote for the Conservatives. The Shepton family had never been in first class before until a helpful trainguard upgraded them so Jezza could get a seat. They crossed the class divide and liked what they saw. Nick Shepton said: “I always used to look at the first class carriage with disdain,...

The Premier League is getting into full swing and many are already pegging the two Manchester clubs as the teams to beat this year. Both teams spent massive loads of cash during the summer to bring in a host of top-tier players, in addition to some of the best managers that money can buy.
