I said recently about Nadine Dorries opening up her comments again, well, having comments again has just reminded me how incompetent the people looking after her blog are and how her blog is an integral part of her website against the rules.
Yeah, yeah, I know that’s all done and dealt with and I’m being petty but, fuck it.

I just spotted that Nadine Dorries has got comments open again on her not-funded-by-taxpayer-and-totally-seperate-from-her-main-website-blog.
I don’t know how long comments have been enabled, but frankly, if an MP is open to the public in this manner, it would be a shame not to make use of it – in a polite and curtious manner, obviously.
It is a little odd though, that with so many visitors, she is getting so few comments. Maybe like me, they don’t know yet.
I wonder if she bothers reading them or if she gets one of her minions to do that as well as the posting…
Nadine Dorries: Champion of Standards
January 3rd, 2008 § 0 comments § permalink
Nothing like upholding standards. If you start letting standards slide, god knows where we’ll end up.
Iain makes a point, a valid one, about Nadine Dorries sounding off about Catherine Tates’ Christmas special and it being inapropriate for a family audience, even though it was shown at 10:30 and was nothing unexpected from Catherine (so I’m told, I don’t actually think Catherine is funny, so didn’t watch).
But I think that Nadine should also keep to certain standards herself, like apologising for or retracting/correcting false accusations.
After all, if politicians can’t keep certain standards what hope has the rest of us?
