Yes, I understand all that. You said that council corruption hadn't been covered by the parliamentary campaign. But why would a parliamentary campaign push local council issues? The government is involved in the Tower Hamlets episode now, Eric Pickles is on the case. Doesn't that make you feel all warm and safe?
