We are deeply disappointed and angry that our video has been used by The Sun. We had not been asked permission. If we had been asked we would have said no. We are taking legal advice and are requesting The Sun remove the video from their feed.
Hi @lpoolcouncil. Do you really want to be allowing @TheSun of all people to be making money off your videos? . If you give permission to Rupert Murdoch's Storyful to use your videos, this will happen again and again #jft96
