Now, a bit of searching reveals that Iliffe family are, in fact Tory party donors. This is no evidence of conspiracy, of course. However it perhaps should form part of the record. After all, were any of the nationals involved, we'd note the political affiliations of their owners.

I handed BOS a story a year ago about how a parish council had covered up around £20000 of wasted money attributed to a personal feud, this reporter didn't bother to research it, probably involved more than five minutes work. Such a shame, Frank Branston used to run this paper and it used to go for the jugular every time.

Why not at least raise the legitimate question of why Dorries employs her daughter on the highest salary grade (office manager / executive secretary) despite minimal previous experience. Follow up why is all correspondence diverted to the Constituency office when the highly paid "office manager" works in parliament? ie who is managed and what role does she perform?Fri, 18 Feb 2011 12:47:21 +0000http://www.bloggerheads.com/archives/2011/02/bedfordshire-on-sunday/#IDComment128800719
