What was that about freedom of expression? Update: Or Not?

At about the same time as the NuLabour Bunker were plotting all sorts of rumour and untruths (or worse) to display on Red Rag, and thought it quite a hoot to be so unfoundedly nasty, a Civil Servant posted an anonymous comment on the "They Work for You" web site. She appears not ot have been best pleased with her Minister, one Hazel Blears. She was traced and sacked.

Yokel supposes that it is now open season on anonymous bloggers and anonymous commenters. After all, how is the Interception Modernisation Programme to justify itself if it cannot rid this government of its turbulent critics.

UPDATE: Not Quite As It First Seemed

It appears that our Civil Servant found Hazel Blears own web site from "They Work for You", and then attempted to leave a disparaging comment for Ms Blears on the politician's own site. Only our Civil Servant didn't notice that it wasn't a web form, it was the Departmental Email that had sprung into action!
