The Willesden and Brent Times reports on Sarah Teather changing her position on human rights here. My main quarrel with this is with the first sentence: "Sarah Teather has been accused of going back on her pre-election promises for a second time since entering government."
It is not the "second time". As well as breaking her long standing commitment against tuition fees, she and her fellow Liberal Democrats have broken their promises not to raise VAT, to implement Building Schools for the Future, not to cut public spending too far and too fast because it would cause massive economic damage and a whole host of other issues.
It would be far more newsworthy if the Willesden and Brent Times could find an example of Sarah Teather keeping a promise for a second time.
