[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 957897, member: 73144"] Listened to an interview with Thomas on the radio this morning. Highly emotional and it sounds like his hand was forced by the media. His parents only found out when a journalist knocked on their door and asked them what they thought about it. Unf*cking believable, and you can only assume that someone somewhere must have breached a confidence, whether professional or otherwise. This in the same week that the media dredged up a distressing 30 year old story about Ben Stokes’ family to which Stokes has, rightly, reacted furiously. The British gutter press really can be complete sh*ts. Selling papers is the only issue here, neither story is remotely in the public interest and both have caused clear and unnecessary distress to those involved. [/QUOTE]
