    Who knows.

    Although, if true, I would wonder whether there was more to it. It is unlikely that she would receive the maximum fine for a first offence.

    Although nothing surprises me any more. 🙁

    Just as a correction, it would appear that she didn’t get the maximum penalty. For that offence it is actually a £20,000 fine, or two years in jail. 😮

    Yeah, I think that’s a wind up.

    They say that Saatchi and Saatchi are responsible for them, but S&S are doing the Conservatives advertising, and wouldn’t be allowed to do both. Conflict of interest.

    That’s not what the article says Peter.

    Anyway, Ian nailed it. 😀
