The Filth and the Fury

On the back of Andrew Rawnsley’s revelations, I decided to write about Gordon Brown’s “bad citizens” for the politics column of the Spectator. Under the magazine’s new online rules, this is only available a week after publication. But now you can read the filth and the fury in all its sordid glory. 
I have since been approached by one of the players named in the piece to say that I had misinterpreted his concern for my welfare as threatening behaviour. 
This, I would suggest, is the whole problem.
