I am surprised he actually received a reply from Ms Netto. I emailed in the past a couple of times about routine issues but was ignored. I do think racking up 11 year old tweets is getting silly. There must be people employed somewhere who trawl through years of twitter utterances whenever someone is in the public eye. I wonder what that job is called?
You can take your pick from
1. investigative journalist
2. muck raker
3. s*** stirrer
It's pretty standard practice to do this sort of trawl when a story is running. People who find themselves in the public eye seem to forget that the sort of crass comment that people may make in the pub when somewhat "tired and emotional" when broadcast on social media, is there forever and comes back to haunt them.
I really hope this storm doesn't spread to other counties, especially Essex. I fear it might. It seems there was a pretty toxic culture at Yorkshire, let's hope that's now being put right there and wasn't the case elsewhere
