"Squirrels to get Traffic Wardens and Norfolk Sq is to be cleaned up"


...will probably be the Argus headlines.

If (and it is a big IF) the Argus do know the decision they are probably consulting with lawyers to decide whether they should run the full story or stick with what they have written so far. Probably some careful wording going on to make sure they don't get into any legal trouble down the line.

I bet the Argus has an EMBARGOED press release from OPDM. It will be set for release at a specified time for probably this afternoon or even 6am tomorrow to allow them to use it for first edition!
Anyone got any contacts at the Argus, Meridian or BBC South?

I have just phoned my mate who works at the Argus and he is going to call me back as soon as he hears anything.

As a former newspaper editor I have sent far worse grammatical emails than that .... he will be rushed off his feet if he is putting the story to bed for a later edition or for an overnight for tomorrow

If all this talk about an embargo is right, then it should be worth having a look at the Argus Night Final edition...

On a story like this they would have to seriously consider breaking the embargo if they know the decision.... especially as everyone will beat them to it tomorrow otherwise

I doubt they will risk being blacked by the Gov press office by breaking an embargo. I did it once with Strathclyde Police and never received another press release from the bastards!!!

My guess is the Argus will bring out a special early edition.

That would be good....they could always say they got their information from one of the NIMBYs thereby weakening their chance of a Judicial Revue...:cool:
