What exactly are you expecting the press to publish?? If you are talking about abuse allegations, they have libel readers, and are alive to the fact that if they make false allegations against a specific person, or allow a vulnerable victim to be identified without their consent, then they'll be sued big time. Thats why you'll see stories about specific alleged abusers who are now dead - they can't sue and will never face prosecution. Why do you think that Syvret has refrained from publishing the contents himself?

Given the earlier furore about Walker's private comment being made public, Shenton should have known better.

it still wouldn't have been a problem without a leak - which is a very sneaky abuse of trust, like telling tales.
Leak in ministerial cabinet = poorly run cabinet = poor leadership = Frank's fault

On that basis Walker's comment to Syvret about shafting Jersey "wouldn't have been a problem" had the BBC not leaked it.

This comment could equally apply to Syvret, who's got those two qualities in abundance

Seeing as Frank Walker doesn't appear to work in Facebook searches any more (the expensive communications unit's work?!).. "I've got nothing for you. Try a new search.".. allow me to provide some links here (from a Telegraph article and a BBC page, no less) :

Montfort Tadier said today : "Anyone who is free tonight, we are meeting 7:30pm in front of Casa Madeira. All welcome"
Where's that? That place at Havre des Pas?

Funny how the facebook search has been nobbled. I think there were about 40 different genuine Frank Walkers on there, I wonder how they all feel about it?!

I was a bit puzzled, when I went past it was called Moitas Bistro. There's a Madeira Bistro in Bath St opposite Le Gallais, but this Casa Madeira had me stumped! Then I found this
Welcome to Casa Velha and apparently it's moved to cheapside as Casa Velha.

I wonder if anyone turned up? Next time he should give a proper address, perhaps make it central town at lunchtime and people may have more chance of showing up!
