This was always going nowhere, reported constantly as Electoral Fraud- deliberately to make it sound like vote rigging, which I am pretty sure most people would say if you asked them what Electoral Fraud was, when in fact it was whether or not the cost of a visit by a coach with a nice (or nasty) slogan on the side should be nationally or local accounted for. As I understand it, they aren't even saying they didn't account for the expense, just put it on the wrong line of an accounts sheet. What a waste of police time and money. Should have let the electoral commission deal with it and fine them accordingly. (which they did to the tune of £70k I believe) Expensive mistake but hardly criminal behaviour and widespread electoral fraud

It all seems a bit of making a mountain out of a mole hill, to me.
The Tories are supported by about 85% of the nation's daily newspapers, so how a couple of coaches with slogans on them would make a difference, I really don't know.
