Guido Fawkes: Expect more local newspaper attacks on MPs
November 4th, 2009Posted by Judith Townend in Editors' pick, Journalism, Newspapers
Guido Fawkes flags up the Luton & Dunstable Express ‘Get Moran Out Now’ campaign in MP Margaret Moran’s Luton South constituency. Expect to see more of this type of campaigning ‘across the land,’ he writes.
“As well as the macro-political environment and the visceral anti-political feeling that covers the land and will be celebrated this Thursday [November 5], the nature of the expenses scandal means that local newspaper journalists will find it easy to attack their sitting MPs.”
