I would hope these plans would repulse any genuine conservative.

The Financial Times revealed this week that Downing Street automatically deletes all emails from its servers after three months, making life harder for those working there, but also for anyone seeking information contained on those emails.

Here's the highest rated comment, justifiably.

A very good observation, thanks - an Education Secretary who wants to teach but not to learn turns into a Justice Secretary who wants to judge but not to provide evidence.

EDIT: It should of course be remembered that Michael Gove and his cabal have ample form on this. Dominic Cummings, a former advisor, took this to extremes when he sent an email to a group indicating he wouldn't respond to mail to his official DfE address and that they could ask him in person why. Mr Gove himself was using private email for government business and a targeted FoI request produced nothing as the data was not held by the DfE.

This is the Justice Secretary. Clearly rules are for other people and the arrogant, illiberal prick is just carrying on his fine work from the DfE.
