Tories caught red handed editing Wikipedia

[Doggy Styles]

The real point surely is not academic disagreements on Titian's age, but the fact that Central Office put a cheap and dishonest stunt before a reference work that is a public good.

I do NOT want to be ruled by people like that.

You already are.

But I agree. If Cameron was correct, the facts will come out whatever wiki says.

Even if Cameron was correct and wikipedia was wrong, that doe not change the point that they altered it not in search of truth, but in search of a cheap political point, that being more important to them.

Yes, I'm agreeing with you.

When will people stop quoting Wikipedia as fact?

Here's another good entry on corronation street actors, who'd have thought

Gregson, once on a night out with the actors who play Bill Webster, Kev Webster, Ashley Peacock, Eddie Windass and Dev Allahan reportedly took 11 blondes back to his hotel room. Unfortunately, according to Jimmi Harkishin, who plays Dev, Gregson suffered from an unfortunate bout of impotence. Gregson denies this strongly but the general consensus is that the girls ended up with Ian Reddington and William Roache (Vernon and Ken respectively)


Wikipedia = somewhere between an encyclopedia and news of the world

How do you know the guy wasn't just correcting the wrong entry? What's cheap and dishonest about amending an error.

And that differs from nulabour how, exactly?

They are all as bad as each other. Both the US and the UK need to boot out every politician, every senior civil servant, and start again.
