IMO, you need to completely replace the knuckle (the bit that the caliper bolts to and that the lower arm ball joint goes into) as it appears to be worn. A good second hand one will do there.

Its not a bad idea to have brand new Ford Track Control Arms while you are at it and then a decent wheel alignment. The arms are around £45 each from Ford and come with new Pinch bolts/nuts and Bushes.

Better still is to Poly Bush the front end too. But it depends on how far you want to go.

Ive got a full set of poly bushes at home so they could be fitted, i'll have a look and see if i can get a good 2nd hand knuckle!!!

What would the fitting charge be on the above items(knuckle, track control arms and front end poly bushes)
