I'm sure it's staring me in the face, but I just can't see it. 24a. Essential piece of information he passed on to press. I have m?b so the only possibilities I can see are mob and mab. There was a Queen Mab, but I don't see the rationale for either. Help please!

I'm puzzled by this too and have cross-posted the same query.
Mob would do for "to press" as in "to collectively gather tightly around someone", but I can't see how the rest of the clue works either!

boyo6

Yep, it's MOB.

M is the centre letter (essential piece) of the word "information", followed by "he passed on", represented as OB (either "Old Boy" or the Latin "Obiit" for "he has died").

Thanks Boyo6. Pretty obscure, but it does make sense.

You're welcome, aptrefor. It was the last one in for me.
