Can we have some proof of this 'Torygraph lie' please? A quick Google reveals that the ‘even numbers only’ story was carried by BBC, Sky and ITV News, and by the Mirror, Sun, Leicester Mercury, Stamford Mercury. The Times, Independent, Guardian and Express newspapers, as well as websites www.lincolnshire.co.uk, www.unbound.co.uk, www. criminal-defence-solicitors.com, www.alexandralocksmiths.co.uk, not to mention …. I gave up after that! I even Googled the same thing again, adding the search word 'untrue' - nothing, zilch!
Let’s take a random left-wing newspaper quote – the Guardian, 6 August 2015 - ‘It emerged on Wednesday that Leicestershire police piloted an approach in which attempted burglaries at even-numbered houses would be fully investigated, with forensic teams sent – but this would not happen if the victim lived in an odd-numbered house.’
Graham, do you have a hang-up about the Telegraph? Have you read it lately?
