Kemi Badenoch, the Conservative leader, has expressed concerns about the new football regulator bill, stating it will be 'a waste of money'.

So why are we doing it?" Premier League leaders, who have said they want to avoid "unintended consequences", are talking to government with a view to persuading those responsible for the bill to make changes to the framework of the legislation.
