More from The Argus readers comments. This rings true to me:

Well she's not very popular from those comments. Why is she still getting away with spouting lies? I guess some 'journalists' have no interest in the facts when it's doing a favour for your dodgy friends...Argus is getting a great reputation for untruths told thanks to Suzy:D

They made the silly mistake of believing their own publicity. :rotfl:

I think the word is deluded.

They still think they can rope-in gullible idiots, the media & MP.
They'll see through them in the end.

Like in any dictatorship, as on their fb page where comments, questions are unanswered & deleted, censored, that's the only way they can do it.

Verse two:

There was a young woman,
Who lived in a tent;
She had but a mattress,
and a dispute over rent.
She gave it some spin,
For the easily led;
But we found out her "squatter",
Was a tenant instead.

She went up to London,
and lobbied her MP;
to get an Early Day Motion,
from Mike Weatherley.
She launched her petition,
but we don't really mind;
As after a week,
Nobody has signed.

The Suzy Butler campaign will just die from lack of support.

It took some two years of campaigning by CAB and Shelter to obtain more rights for tenants.

It's on their Facebook page, as well as a big thanks to Mike Weatherly for his 'support'.

Hehe.

I've got ZERO pity if the press repeatedly hound Mike Weatherly at his home for more information. Have GMTV and BBC and others knocking on his door seeking more information about this story. Maybe his kids can answer the door if he's not there and have them deal with the questions - just like Carmen Nobre's daughter might have had to fend off Suzy Butler / police / media at the door.

If he doesn't like it, maybe the police should accompany the media as the media seeks further information. Just like the landlord took the police around to the tenant's home to push for access inside the house.

He seems to have been happy to take the side of landlord Suzy Butler... posing for all those photos at Westminster.

Not heard him give any word to what the landlord did was wrong, or show any feeling to what the tenant went through. "Told of £15 per day late" charges on top of £1200+ a month rent she'd fallen, police and media coming around, lawful tenant labelled a squatter, nation told Suzy Butler wanted her house back in April when extended contract to August ect ect ect.

The MP, who has a tattoo reading 'Live for the moment'

Yeah, like many of the ignorant landlords do.

Don't worry about any possible consequences of not doing proper research, taking professional advice, and minimising risks ect.

Sort it all out later if there's a problem with media pressure, label them squatters, distort facts, or simply pull tenant out by the hair ect.

Mike Weatherly MP needs to be watched. If Suzy Butler came away from her meeting with him with a positive impression, he is as clueless as her.

Bang on, as they say.
