PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
NEWS MANAGEMENT AND SPECIAL ADVISERS (15 October 2001)

Motion Details

That this House notes with dismay the unethical behaviour of Jo Moore, a ministerial special adviser, in seeking to exploit the terrorist atrocities in America to 'bury' news stories damaging to the Government; agrees with Charlie Whelan, the former aide to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that her action was 'sickening'; and calls on the Right honourable Member for North Tyneside to remove her from his staff forthwith.
