MEDIA AND POLITICIANS

Early day motion 1038, tabled 26 February 2008 by Peter Bottomley (Conservative). Signed by 4 members.

That this House recognises that the normal state of affairs is for the media to report on, criticise and comment on politicians; and believes that, although it is fair game and good sport to reverse roles, politicians should usually have the sense, strength and humour to live with robust coverage.
