Declan Rice started, and by the end he looked like a man who anyone with a heart and a conscience would steer gently by the hand to a waiting taxi to take him to the airport, to then transport him to a quiet seaside resort with a sun-lounger and a bottle of factor 50. “Here’s a few bob, son”, they’d say, handing him an envelope with some cash in it. “Go lie on…
