This is a thread for everybody who is shocked about what Janet Street Porter published about Carrie Symonds today.
I am going to tell YOU a story about a woman who has worked in media and has much to be ashamed of.
Trigger warning: thread links to details of child sex crimes.

This woman does not deal in politics by engaging and helping people. No, her whole job here was handling media. Deciding what got coverage & what didn't.
3 times in 2018 she decided it would be better that news of convictions for child sex crimes stayed out of the news. 3 times.

She did this all to protect one organisation. The SAME organisation that paid her quite specifically to influence what got coverage & what didn't.
Instead of protecting young people from harm, she chose instead to ignore the issue and downplay or mute coverage wherever possible.

I personally am disgusted by this behaviour and have for months been calling on those in charge to recognise the convictions and take immediate action to improve safeguarding and vetting standards in their organisation.
Problem: the main guy in charge is this woman's boyfriend!

This won't stop me from calling for improved safeguarding and vetting in their organisation, and I hope you agree strongly enough to campaign with me.
So here are the names:
The woman is Carrie Symonds, and her boyfriend is some guy called Boris Johnson:

Addendum:
If you ask *any* Tory MP about this, you will most likely learn what I did about their party, and how tight they are with each other regardless of any moral imperative normal people might feel.
What is this, other than a party-wide cover-up?
