May delights her fans in the press
So it turns out that a prime minister's word isn't always sacrosanct - because, after all, he or she won't be in No 10 forever.
Victims of press abuse in Britain believe they were given a cast-iron guarantee that the second stage of the Leveson Inquiry, which would look at corporate governance at Rupert Murdoch's News International as well as the relationship between Britain's press and the police, would definitely go ahead.
The Tory manifesto says that, if they are elected, it will not.
Moreover, Section 40 of the Crime and Courts Act 2013, which if enacted would have forced newspapers to pay the costs of legal action taken against them - unless they belonged to an approved regulator - has also been dropped.
Tory bastard.
To think people are going to vote for this ****.
