The Conservative Party

Laura Saunders statement:
"It is inappropriate to conduct any investigation of this kind via the media, and doing so risks jeopardising the work of the Gambling Commission and the integrity of its investigation.

"The publication of the BBC's story is premature and is a clear infringement of Ms Saunders' privacy rights.

"She is considering legal action against the BBC and any other publishers who infringe her privacy rights."


Yet her husband has stepped back from his duties.

Fuck Me, is she seriously arguing that she has the right to break the law in private while at same time she is trying get elected to public office?

They really are the Party of Organised Spivvery

Even her statement is piss poor.

There is no such thing as a right to privacy. English law does not recognise the concept.

What she does have is a right to respect for her private life. That is a right that must be balanced against the rights of others to freedom of expression.

In the context of an attempt to suppress news of a criminal investigation while simultaneously running for public office, as you say that is quite a stretch.
