Re: [Update] The News Corp scandal

Hmm! I wonder whom is at the bottom of this attempt at blagging and why?
Quote:
Conservative MP Louise Mensch has admitted she "probably" took drugs with violinist Nigel Kennedy when she was working for record company EMI.
The MP for Corby said she had been contacted by journalists who said they knew she had taken drugs at a nightclub.
The journalists claimed to have photographs of the night in question.

Quote:
Mrs Mensch, who also writes romantic novels under her maiden name Louise Bagshawe, has published an e-mail from investigative journalists accusing her of taking drugs and dancing, while drunk, with the musician during her time as a press officer for EMI a number of years ago.
She has also made public her reply to the journalists, which stated: "Although I do not remember the specific incident, this sounds highly probable... since I was in my twenties, I'm sure it was not the only incident of the kind; we all do idiotic things when young."

Quote:
A Labour member of the committee, West Bromwich East MP Tom Watson, said: "It seems that someone has been digging into the youth of Louise Mensch.
"I admire her for what she has done. The fact that they would go back 20 years and try to dig up into her private life is frankly disgusting.
