Tap-tap-tapping

At first I thought Channel 4 News had taken the fateful decision, but after a minute or so of teasing it turned out the fat florid chap ambling along behind Mrs T in the archive footage wasn't He Who Must Not Be Named (Tory grandees look so alike) but Sir Peter Morrison who is dead. Morrison has already been outed as a man with a taste for teens and all Channel 4 was doing was confirming his identification as one of the gentleman who used to use the Bryn Estyn childrens home as an escort agency.

The media are clearly chafing at the restrictions that have been placed on them. If they'll can't discuss the living abuser(s) they'll make headlines out of the ones who are no longer around to issue writs.  They must be hoping (as I do) that if they keep on tap-tap-tapping away something's bound to give.
