David Mills found guilty - BBC play down who he is (update)

The BBC now seem to have removed this story from their news front page and their politics front page, in fact the only link to it that I can see is on their Europe news page where it resides in the "MORE EUROPE NEWS" section at position 5. Somehow I think that if this was the spouse of a Conservative politician the story would rank somewhat higher on the BBC news website.

The BBC protecting Party Members, it's what they do.
