I followed the Graun recommendations yesterday and took a look at John Redwood's internet diary.
Of course, I was excited beyond measure by the promise of 'incisive and topical campaigns and commentary on today's issues and tomorrow's problems'.
The article was entitled 'Time to get a grip on loans to Northern Rock'.
Good start.
I read the comments. Very good.
Then, I had a thought - why should we discuss within their ideology?
So, I asked a question.
'Northern Rock has been insolvent for some time.
Mr Applegarth sold his shares ‘just in time’.
Would a Conservative government look into this type of insider trading?'

I was non-existent.
I didn't register in the conversation.
Why should this be?

Email from John Redwood MP on 22/1/08 :
'I am not posting your comment, as there is no evidence of insider dealing, and the authorities assert that Rock is solvent. Your comments could result in legal aciton. Thanks for writing in.'
Nice to see that typos are not the preserve of the poor bloggers alone. Unless 'aciton' is a peculiarly Vulcan form of retribution, that is.

Searched, big man, and couldn't find anything decent.
Eventually.
And thanks for the thought..
Some clues as to what's going on to be found here maybe
Thank you. I will look at the Torygraph in a new light after that link.
I think he meant that HE could be subject to legal action as a result of publishing an arguably libellous statement on his blog. I don't think he was threatening you. Mind you, that still doesn't make him a nice guy.
George, I should co-co.
