Reply to "TORY MANIFESTO"

A couple of points from the Tory manifesto that - for some reason - aren't exactly making the front pages at the moment:

  • Second part of the Leveson Inquiry into the culture, practices and ethics of the press will not take place.
  • Repeal section 40 of the Crime and Courts Act 2014, which would - if enacted - force newspapers to pay their opponents' legal costs linked to libel and privacy actions, even if they win in court, if they are not signed up to an officially-recognised regulator.

 

Makes you wonder why so much of the press is praising May to the rafters at the moment, doesn't it?
