well now... today the gag on one of this years biggest political scandals thus far has been lifted. The Guardian has now published information which has previously been stifled by a gagging order over the last few days. The 'cash for honours' story has ran and ran for almost a year now, and it seems to me could now be drawing to a close. But who is 'leaking' the information to the press, and why? I have a few ideas:
- Downing street. Perhaps somebody is a little concerned by goings-on which are not strictly 'ethical'.
- The Met. Perhaps their investigation had reached a dead end, a leak to the media could have been just the thing to stir-up lines of inquiry for them?
- A press informant, who has infiltrated the inner-circle. Less likely I think, but a possibility.
