    It is completely clear from video footage that @MattHancock's adviser was not whacked by a protestor, as I was told by senior Tories, but that he inadvertently walked into a protestor's hand. I apologise for getting this wrong.

        You reported what Senior Tories told you without question or relaying that all of the sources were Senior Tories? That seems like a crap thing to do three days before an election.

        It’s almost as if “senior Tories” might not be objective, reliable sources. Again.

        What's that, Robert? Your Tory source LIED to you? What a surprise. Now perhaps you should think twice about before uncritically spreading info from "Tory sources" without verifying them. Not sure you will.

        Maybe check the fucking facts before rushing to tweet. Y’know, like a journalist would.
