Yesterdays I newspaper...excellent small article, by Chloe Chaplain.
""The next big scandal waiting to happen...The issue of secret corporate lobbying "had tainted our politics for too long", and, through "the quiet word in your ear, the ex ministers and ex advisors for hire", it had exposed "the far too cosy relationship between politics, government, business and money". He said that the Conservatives would "be the party that sorts this out".

"People aren't opening their windows because they're afraid it will go into their house," the woman reportedly said.

The Krakow Animal Welfare Society said the incident was genuine.
