BBC Panorama has been working with The Times on a joint investigation into the allegations made about Mr Sullivan. "Over decades, he's made millions from pornography, newspapers, and football. The investigation is due to be broadcast and published on Monday," a BBC spokesperson said. It is understood none of the claims relate to West Ham or any of its operations, the club said, while Mr Sullivan also added that none concern "my more than 30 years in football". "I have recently become aware that factually incorrect and entirely false, decades-old allegations concerning my personal life are due to be broadcast and published," he said. "The false allegations levelled against me have been sensationalised by the media. After a lifetime spent building businesses in the adult industry in which I have met thousands of women, it is sadly inevitable that a small number of improper conduct claims are being made against me. I categorically deny these claims." Mr Sullivan, who made his fortune from owning pornographic magazines and sex shops, went on to say he will sue "the BBC for libel, along with any other media outlet that repeats any libellous allegations". "I am a private man, and those who personally and professionally know the real David Sullivan, not the caricature invented by the tabloids, know exactly who I am and what I stand for," he said. "I am absolutely not the person the media has decided to paint me as." Until his resignation on Saturday, Mr Sullivan was on West Ham's board of directors alongside joint-chairs Czech billionaire Daniel Kretinsky and Vanessa Gold. In his statement, Mr Sullivan said his decision to resign came as West Ham faces a "challenging and important time" and he didn't want to create any distractions. "This has been an incredibly painful decision to make, but it is one made out of love, respect, and responsibility toward a football club and a fan base that deserve absolute unity and focus moving forward," he said. West Ham were relegated from the Premier League last month after 14 years in the top flight. The club's demotion to the Championship was confirmed on 24 May despite a 3-0 win over Leeds. The 2025/26 season saw the club sack Graham Potter as coach in September, after the team lost four out of five games. Off the pitch, the season has been mired by protest, with fans waving red cards on the 16th minute of the game, to mark the 16 years under Mr Sullivan and Baroness Brady.

Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia. "Veteran news anchor Jon Snow has shared that he's living with dementia, speaking publicly for the first time to raise awareness of a condition affecting around one million people across the UK," the Alzheimer's Society said. The charity said the 78-year-old has decided to speak out in a new documentary which will air on Channel 4 later this month. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer praised Mr Snow as a "true giant in journalism" and said his decision to go public with his diagnosis is "helping others feel less alone and raising awareness of a condition that affects so many families". Michelle Dyson, CEO of Alzheimer's Society, said: "Jon's decision to talk publicly about his dementia diagnosis is a real act of courage and his story will resonate with so many. "His support for Alzheimer's Society will help spark a national conversation about dementia that we so desperately need. "Despite being the UK's biggest killer, dementia is still not treated with the same urgency as other major health conditions like cancer. "Alongside his wife Precious, Jon is shining a light on the need for faster, fairer access to diagnosis. "I would encourage anyone needing help or information to call our Dementia Support Line on 0333 150 3456 or visit alzheimers.org.uk."

The journalist also revealed he was part of a clinical trial for the condition and has previously spoken about how his mother, Joan, struggled with Alzheimer's in the years leading up to her death. Alzheimer's is the ongoing decline of brain functioning and can affect memory, thinking skills and other mental abilities, according to the NHS. Louisa Compton, head of news, current affairs, specialist factual and sport at Channel 4, said: "It is a profound privilege that we are able to document his last big investigation, in a sensitively made film that frames Jon's current affairs nous alongside a new life lived with Alzheimer's. "We hope this film will go a long way to raise awareness of how to live whilst facing a life-changing diagnosis."

Mr Vance made the comments on X after the US state department also commented on the case, saying "two-tiered policing" must be rejected in the West. Now No 10 has accused people of "seeking to stir up division on our streets". The US vice president claimed Mr Nowak, an 18-year-old student, would "still be alive today... if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it". "Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won't be the last," he added. "Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response - the only response - is righteous anger." 'Our politics should bring people together' A Downing Street spokesperson responded: "In recent days we have seen people trying to interfere in our democracy and seeking to stir up division on our streets. "The Nowak family are grieving after Henry's horrific murder. They have said they do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension. We should be respecting their wishes. "Our politics should bring people together even in the most terrible of circumstances. That is who we are as a country." Sky News' US correspondent David Blevins said: "It's not unusual for the Trump administration to point to tragic murders in a bid to justify its policies on mass immigration and national sovereignty, but it's an entirely different matter altogether for one party in what we often call 'the special relationship' - the US - to accuse the other - the UK - of having a two tier criminal justice system and overseeing civilisational decline." Hampshire Police has faced allegations of "two-tier" policing following the release of bodycam footage showing Mr Nowak's dying moments after being stabbed. Despite telling the officers about his injuries, he was placed into handcuffs after his murderer Vickrum Digwa falsely claimed he had been racist towards him. The footage led to violent protests near where the murder took place in Southampton. Downing Street has rejected "any suggestion of two-tier policing across the United Kingdom". Lammy rejects two-tier allegations Responding to the US state department comments, Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy said: "I don't recognise... this caricature of Britain having a two-tier criminal justice system. I just don't recognise that."

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and Nigel Farage clashed in the Commons earlier this week, after the Reform UK leader hit out at what he called "two-tier policing". Digwa was given a life sentence with a minimum of 21 years in prison for stabbing Mr Nowak with a ceremonial knife with a 21cm blade, which he carried as part of his Sikh religion. Speaking after Digwa was sentenced on Monday, Mr Nowak's father Mark said: "We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension." The Independent Office for Police Conduct is investigating Hampshire Police's response in Mr Nowak's case.

Having finished the opening day's running around the unique street circuit three tenths of a second off a flying Ferrari's pace, Mercedes' apparent work overnight to improve their W17's set-up paid immediate dividends on the return to the track. Antonelli, chasing a fifth successive victory this weekend to extend a 43-point title lead, set an impressive time of 1:12.720 to outpace Ferrari's Charles Leclerc by 0.327s.

Get Sky Sports or stream with no contract on NOW📺 Leclerc's first lap on his qualifying simulation, which would normally have been his quickest, was badly compromised by traffic in the final sector, but the Monegasque was already 0.2s down on Antonelli by the end of sector two. Leclerc also again struggled with his car's brakes. "Mercedes have turned things around," said Sky Sports F1's Anthony Davidson. "Really impressive stuff from Antonelli too." Friday pacesetter Lewis Hamilton was 0.004s behind team-mate Leclerc in third, with George Russell fourth in the second Mercedes after his soft-tyre run did not go entirely to plan, and he wound up 0.7s behind Antonelli. Max Verstappen had been Ferrari's closest challenger on Friday but Red Bull struggled to stay with the leaders as the pace upped in final practice, the Dutchman finishing 0.9s off Antonelli's pace and now looking far less like a pole contender. McLaren remain the best part of a second off the pace and appear set to qualify on the third row at best with Oscar Piastri sixth and Lando Norris, whose car was fixed overnight after it stopped due to technical issues in P2, ninth. An impressive Audi still lead the midfield with Gabriel Bortoleto in seventh and Nico Hulkenberg in 10th continuing to run around the off-colour McLarens and the second Red Bull of Isack Hadjar, who was eighth. Oliver Bearman caused a red flag in the closing 15 minutes when he crashed into the barriers after getting out of shape at the top of the hill into Massenet. Bearman, who finished 14th fastest, quickly apologised to his team over the radio. "Sorry guys. It's the bottoming! Oh my gosh," he said, with his Haas mechanics now in a race against time to repair his car for qualifying at 3pm. Franco Colapinto had earlier damaged his Alpine when he spun and tagged the barriers at the slower-speed hairpin.

In a letter to Sir Keir Starmer, Ms Badenoch said a review was needed to restore the public's confidence and faith in the police following the case, which sparked violence on the streets of Southampton earlier this week. Mr Nowak, 18, was handcuffed by police after being stabbed, despite telling officers about his injuries. His murderer, Vickrum Digwa, falsely claimed he had been racist towards him. He was jailed for life on Monday. The Independent Office for Police Conduct is investigating Hampshire police's response in Mr Nowak's case - but Ms Badenoch argued a government review could provide answers more quickly. She wrote: "An independent rapid review into the circumstances surrounding Henry's death, including the police response, the subsequent decision-making, and the role of the IOPC would be the best means of ensuring that confidence in policing and the wider system of accountability is maintained. "It would secure an objective account of events, examine any failings, provide clarity for Henry's family, answer legitimate public concerns, and demonstrate that no institution is beyond scrutiny when public trust is at stake. "Such a review would be capable of delivering answers within a few months, while remaining independent of Hampshire police and the IOPC itself." Ms Badenoch added: "Crucially, it would be able to examine the entire chain of events and decision-making, including questions that fall outside the IOPC's own investigation." Police bodycam footage showed Mr Nowak lying on the ground, handcuffed, pleading for the police to help him after he was stabbed. Sir Keir has said the footage was "harrowing", adding: "I have to say, as a father of a 17-year-old boy, I felt sick watching it."

In a statement, his daughters said he "passed away peacefully of complications due to pneumonia, surrounded by his family". The star was best known as librarian Rupert Giles in the cult US supernatural TV series starring Sarah Michelle Gellar, which ran from 1997 to 2003. Known for his distinctive baritone voice, Head first rose to fame in the UK in the 1980s in the Nescafe Gold Blend television adverts. The ads, which ran from 1987 to 1993, saw Head play one half of the on-screen "Gold Blend couple," alongside Sharon Maughan, who struck up a slow-burning romance over a cup of coffee. More recently, Head appeared in football comedy Ted Lasso, where he played former Richmond FC owner Rupert Mannion. Other notable roles include playing the prime minister in Little Britain and Uther Pendragon in the TV show Merlin, the father of Prince Arthur. Head's daughters, actresses Emily and Daisy Head, said in their statement that: "Our grief is far greater than the hole he has left behind but we know his legacy will live on in the shows he was a part of and in the audiences that love them." Over the years, the star also appeared in Motherland, Manchild, Silent Witness, Spooks, Doctor Who and My Family. Read more from Sky News:Two men recruited by Iran found guilty of stabbing TV presenterMan in his 50s dies after fight at Cornwall holiday park In July 2018, he joined the cast of the BBC Radio 4 long-running drama The Archers, playing Robin Fairbrother. Head was also a singer, having appeared in the West End and recorded music, including the album for the Buffy the Vampire Slayer musical episode. His long-time partner, animal welfare campaigner Sarah Fisher, died in December 2025 aged 61. His Ted Lasso co-star and a writer on the show, actor Brett Goldstein, has remembered Head as "infinitely charming and kind and fun and a joy" in a tribute shared to Instagram. He wrote: "Anthony Head was a brilliant actor who played the worst person in the world, which was an incredible skill because he was the best person. "He will be sorely missed. Love to his family." Award-winning screenwriter and producer Russell T Davies remembered Head as an "absolute delight" and in a lengthy tribute he recalled their time working together on shows including Doctor Who and Merlin. His Buffy co-star David Boreanaz described him as a "kind and generous soul" while actor Matt Lucas, who starred alongside him in Little Britain, wrote on X that Head was "unfailingly brilliant, and always so kind and warm".

Henry Nowak was stabbed by Vickrum Digwa, who was jailed this week, with a ceremonial Pesh Kabz, a 21cm Indo-Persian dagger previously used in battles to pierce through armour. Digwa claimed he carried the murder weapon for religious reasons. He was also carrying a kirpan, the small knife not usually more than six inches long, including the handle, which can be carried by Sikh men and women. Harriet Harman, former deputy leader of the Labour Party, told Sky News' political editor Beth Rigby on the Electoral Dysfunction podcast it should no longer be lawful to carry knives for cultural or religious reasons. "One of the issues on knife crime is whether it counts as lawful grounds to carry a weapon because you are a Sikh or it is a ceremonial knife," she said. "Now, the knife that was used to stab Henry was not a Sikh ceremonial knife, but there is a tradition of allowing Sikh knives to be kept as part of cultural and religious tradition - same as there's an allowance of, in Scotland, the dirk, the dagger that's in the top of men's socks. "These are currently a lawful reason to carry a knife. "If you were a chef carrying your knife to work or something like that, there's a recognition in the law that this is not carrying an offensive weapon. "But actually, I don't think that religious or customary grounds for carrying bladed weapons should be acceptable anymore." Read more: Henry Nowak protesters accused of 'hijacking' tragedy Under Section 139 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988, carrying a knife for work, as part of national costume or for religious reasons are potential lawful defences. Mark Nowak, Henry's father, told reporters outside Southampton Crown Court this week: "People should not be able to walk openly through the streets of Britain carrying a 21cm blade."

England have won so many games under Sarina Wiegman, there is no need to panic after one loss. But this wasn't just any old loss. The Lionesses were battered on every level by Spain, their spirit crushed as readily as their World Cup qualification campaign. England have played poorly before under Wiegman but nothing like this. Going behind is something fans are used to seeing. You could even argue the team barely only had one complete performance en route to winning the Euros last summer. Spain 4-0 England - Match report & reactionWomen's World Cup qualifying fixtures But you usually see a fightback, a scrap and a sense of desperation to win on the biggest stage. That 'proper English' mentality earned them their second major trophy in three years. When England conceded four goals to Germany at Wembley in the build-up to the Euros, they at least went down swinging, losing 4-3 on the night. On Friday night in Mallorca, England failed to muster a single shot on target. The spirit of Switzerland had faded to dust. 'We weren't good enough' and 'we have to do better' was the message from the players immediately after the final whistle at Son Moix. That, however, feels like an understatement. England were outplayed on every level. They struggled to keep possession or to react to first balls and were tactically all over the place. Senior players, heralded as some of the best in the world, made error after error, most of them inexplicable. This wasn't just an off-night, it was something of a nightmare. Should England have sent out Lucy Bronze, Lauren James and Ella Toone, all of whom are coming back from injury, against the best in the world? It's easy to play Monday Morning Quarterback but Wiegman's insistence on trusting a small pool of players in big games will again be questioned. Jess Park was a spectator on the bench, Aggie Beever-Jones wasn't even selected to be a substitute and Freya Godfrey is still waiting to make her debut despite being part of the last three international camps. And that's just the forwards - you could list players in every position desperate for a chance. Those opportunities are unlikely to come before the World Cup thanks to last night's result. Wiegman will almost certainly go to her tried and tested players to get England through an unwanted play-off campaign in the autumn. There's too much on the line to start taking risks now. But there are longer-term problems. The immediate puzzle that needs solving is how to get a reaction on Tuesday against Ukraine. England were supposed to come to Palma, get the point they needed to qualify for the World Cup and send a statement to their many rivals by securing a place on the billing of Brazil early. They leave Mallorca, however, riddled with questions, doubt and disappointment. This team has been at its best when written off in the past. Wiegman will hope this bout of adversity will make the team stronger again by next summer.
