Talk:Editorial Intelligence

well this has been changed quite a bit I wonder if it could be explained to me please. I don't really think whoever changed it really has improved it and when there is so much to be done here what's the point: I think the plan to section it off as some sort of 'polemic' seemed a better idea — I just don't trust the editting that's being done here — seems tendentious to me: do i have to go about re-instating bits, can't I be consulted first?

Best leave this to me I think — I'm quite open to suggestions on how to possibly change it and also if we are to publish it as a pamphlet I'm releuctant to name another author!

This para needs discussion. Can the language be toned down while keeping the main point?

This is not the version of events assumed around Fleet Street. If you recall the timetable last year, after the first flurry of activity in August, the story went quiet and Blunkett's job looked safe. Then on November 28, the Sunday Telegraph broke an exclusive: "Blunkett's ex-lover accusing him of fast-tracking visa." Someone, presumably from the Quinn camp, had given the story legs again. With this, the minister was doomed." [1]
