Michael Whitty, from Liverpool, was nabbed at Manchester Airport after sniffer dogs got a whiff (no pun intended) of his illegal stash which included cocaine, ecstasy and ketamine.

On UKPol, we have a “reputable source” rule, which is often a good guide. People tend to interpret it as “not the daily mail/star/express/s*n”.
Though I guess it can be less serious over here. Maybe a “try to find a non-crap source, otherwise archive.is/screenshot.”Sunday Sport, for example, home of the creme-egg-bum-man:
It was originally in the Liverpool Echo but for an And Finally… I tend to pick the source with the best headline.
And that Sunday Sport story is a favourite for circulating on WhatsApp at Easter.
