Glasgow Sunday Mail discover johnson4leader web plot!

The Glasgow Sunday Mail's Westminster correspondent, Rob Gibson, says he has uncovered a "web plot for Blair's 'only friend' to run against Brown for leadership..... One source said "friends" of Johnson had already registered websites called johnson4 leader.co.uk, johnson4leader.org.uk, johnson4leader.com and johnson4leader.org.".

What is it about non-English sunday papers stealing stories and claiming them as they're own? There's clearly a celtic conspiracy story in this somewhere! I've also just noticed that Kevin Maguire made passing reference to the domains in Wednesday's Mirror. Whilst he didn't mention the site at least he didn't try to claim the discovery as his.

I'm glad it has been picked up, maybe if you had been Iain, your site would have been mentioned.
