Labour wade into Liverpool and Manchester City FA Cup row as they demand semi final is moved from Wembley

Labour insist the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Manchester City should be moved from Wembley amid rail engineering works that make it almost impossible to travel to the game by train.

The match, due to take place on either April 16 or 17, will be held in London on a weekend there will be no direct trains from the north-west of England to the capital.

The shadow culture secretary, Lucy Powell, has added her voice to a number of local politicians including the mayors of Liverpool and Greater Manchester calling for the game to be switched to a closer venue.
