Alex 35433 Posted Tuesday at 19:06 Share Posted Tuesday at 19:06 While it’s a joke the scrutiny over something like this seems to be a fairly recent phenomenon in the BBC. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35433 Posted Tuesday at 19:49 Share Posted Tuesday at 19:49 (edited) And if you wonder how something like this works. It goes a bit like this: MP, former MP, former SpAd or something like that knows exactly how much was previously spent on these folders, where they were purchased etc. So they (for example) tell a sympathetic journalist at the Telegraph or the BBC to send in a very specific freedom of information request. And there’s your highly important bit of investigative journalism carried out in the public interest. Edited Tuesday at 19:50 by Alex 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
