Dad in court for offering daughter £5k amid cost of living crisis

Anthony Mitchell, 73, sent a text message to say he wanted her to have £5,000 to help her family with the cost of living. But the message put him in breach of a restraining order which prohibits him from having any contact with his daughter.
