DAILY MIRROR AND THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY
That this House congratulates The Daily Mirror on its principled stand in refusing a paid advertisement from the Conservative party, on the grounds that it contained a pack of fabrications; regrets that if it continues to apply this criterion to Tory adverts, it stands to lose a lot of money; and calls on Tory propaganda Ministers to clean up their act.
