why have comments not complementary to he subject been removed? is the reverter the subject himself or a supporter?
facts are facts. Its a fact that the subject has consistently voted in Parliament against gay rights. The source is quoted. Its a fact that he proposed doubling of MP's salaries. The source is quoted. Its a fact that he claimed expenses for journals and magazines. the source is quoted. Its a fact that George Galloway made fun of his poor English grammar in his Commons suspension debate. The source from hansard is quoted and the video is on youtube.
if someone doesnt give a reasonable answer to the above, i will re-instate the edits. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.40.112.202 ( talk) 08:25, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
I've looked at expenses allegations relating to a number of MP's on both sides. The
first reference doesn't say very much at all and should be removed. I'll try and find the Telegraph article BUT in any case I believe employment of one relative was and still is permitted. I'll update article shortly hopefully applying
WP:NPOV but feel free to comment.

I note that this properly cited item has been removed. Of course, if it is wrong then it should be removed or shown as incorrect but its reasonable to want better proof than this, usually in the form of an apology. The Telegraph is regarded as a more reliable newspaper than the Mail and is reputed to check its facts. If Andrew Robathan has concerns, he should follow instructions on the Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard. JRPG ( talk) 14:08, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
