    It translates to about 4 emails per day, 5 phone calls, and 20 text messages, so yes, it seems like war. What is normal for lobbyists generally, and what is normal for lobbyists when there is a decision about to be made?

    According to the Telegraph, it was actually over the period from/to these months, not “in” those two months, so about a years’s worth of communications. It ends up as only about one email, one phone call, and three texts a day. I do actually communicate with my partner more than this – more emails and less texts. I also communicate on active business projects more often – several emails a day sometimes. Does anyone know how this compares with an average lobbyist?

    People being stalked don’t tend to send many messages back to their stalkers.

    No it can’t be stalking, as it seems to have been a mutually advantageous reciprocal relationship, right up until NoTW got busted hacking the voicemail of a murdered kit, the deal was put on ice and Hunt outlived his usefulness to the Murdoch empire.

    Why is he still in his post? A national embarrassment to be heading into the Olympics with a Minister thus compromised, hanging on by his fingernails.
