Not sure why there is so much noise around Harvey Goldsmith’s contact. I can confirm my officers have been in conversation with Mr Goldsmith since July 2018. If worthwhile, they will continue.

@MarvinJRees I am in constant contact with Harvey Goldsmith who has just called me now. Suggesting there is some sort of ongoing dialogue between your officers & him is simply untrue? One conversation at the beginning of July & then radio silence. #Bristol #Arena
