  Ignore. The article is mostly speculation and winding up Tory readers. The last two or so paragraphs have a kernel of truth.

  Apparently they're doing a 5-page spread on it (they rang me and numerous others for comment). Whether it actually leads to by-elections as they speculate appears to depend on whether people make formal complaints and whether the police decide to follow up. The precedent is the Fiona Jones case, where the issue of whether election-related phone canvassing should have been declared raged on for years.

  Bound to be stories about the Conservatives. The Mirror never chastises the Reds.
