Remember those business tax cuts that George Osborne offered to the (few) owners of regional press titles (see post a few days ago)?
Not one regional newspaper has covered the Channel 4 news story that Conservative PCC candidate, Alison Hernandez, is embroiled in a police investigation about election expenses and, if elected, could be in a position to sack the person who would be in charge of it.
One of them has, however, covered a story about the UKIP candidate who, if elected, says he would campaign to get rid of the job – whilst collecting a big salary for “doing” it.
It remains to be seen today if the regional TV stations do the same thing.
Hhhmmm.
