Hello, readers. Sorry I've been away, but there's been a thing. Given my track record (1, 2), I trust I retain your confidence that a full report of the event will be published as soon as the relevant necessary is done with, and the evidence is ready.
:o)
And now, onto my reason for this visit; Nadine Dorries and her latest presence on Twitter.
Nadine has recently taken to attaching herself to the side of angels in the online bullying/defamation debate, but the fact is, she is so dishonest and/or delusional that she treats legitimate criticism as if it is abuse, and even thinks (alleged) libel to be a matter for the police. Further, she engages in bullying and defamation herself using Twitter and other facilities, and I look forward to publishing the detail of that.
The widely-reported manner in which she blocks people makes it quite apparent that she seeks to prevent informed critics from reading her timeline. So, if this sounds like you, and you'd like to keep an eye on what the old fraud is up to, you can now follow a mirror of all of Dorries' tweeted output via @BlockedByNadine
(Psst! The fact that evil baby-murdering humanists could still keep up with her dishonest anti-abortion campaigning got so far up Nadine Dorries' nose that she misled the public its context and purpose with a day, and in the House no less.)
@Steand is to be congratulated for the initiative. Transparency not an offer to be thrown about lightly and then cast aside at for reasons of party/political/personal convenience.

Nadine Dorries: a warning
Nadine Dorries, Conservative MP for Mid Bedfordshire, set Twitter alight today with some poorly-received comments about 'obsessive' use of blogs on her, erm... blog*.
There is detail about Dorries' post that needs documenting (it is a thinly veiled attack on one of her critics, and Dorries is ably supported in this task by Paul 'Guido Fawkes' Staines, and not for the first time) but this important warning must come first.
Nadine is most frequently under fire on Twitter today for this passage:
You need to be aware that Nadine Dorries is most likely only adopting this position in order to attack one of her critics with a smear (something she does often). She may not genuinely think, for example, that those who are on benefits due to mental health problems should be reported to authorities for daring to engage in conversation on Twitter.
However, because she is trying to smear this particular critic as mentally damaged (i.e. as well as fraudulent), she certainly gives this impression, and as a result, there are bloggers who are brave enough to write about their own mental health issues who wish to complain about this.
I am here to warn people that if you write to Andy Rayment, the Chairman of the Mid Bedfordshire Conservative Association [admin@midbedsconservatives.com], to complain about the conduct of Nadine Dorries, you can expect an answer like this...
... and when this happens, you can most probably count on Dorries chuckling along like it's the wittiest thing said since Churchill popped his clogs:
Finally, I should add that if you dare to press the matter, you will most likely end up getting smeared yourself. You have been warned.

[NOTE - What Dorries describes as a 'bombardment' is less than half a dozen emails and calls over a 6 month period, none of which earned a civil reply. You can read the background on this here and here. It should also be noted for the purpose of transparency that the two main targets of Dorries' smears referred to in this post are editors of this site.]
[*She calls it a blog, but don't be thinking you can leave comments on it. That would be a foolish expectation.]

UPDATE - And here's that detail that needed to be documented:
Nadine Dorries Takes Revenge on Twitter Critic: Uses Paul Staines to Push Smear
Thank you, Richard Bartholomew.
Readers may also be interested in this round-up of related posts by the lovely Ms Cushion.
For the record, there have been minor outbreaks of support for Nadine Dorries on Twitter (a few people versus a few hundred, no exaggeration), but so far all they amount to are assurances that she is a lovely person, really and/or repeats of Nadine's smears (i.e. outright lies) that somehow prove in their mind that she's a lovely person, really.
Truth is, Nadine Dorries is the type of person who knowingly publishes and publicises malicious, damaging lies about people she perceives to be her political enemies.

"In the meantime, do you know of anyone else who has Tweeted more than 35,000 times in less than six months? If so, email my office and let me know. Or, better still, if it's someone you know is on benefits, contact the DWP." - Nadine Dorries (source)

every possible permutation
Nadine Dorries...
As of the time of writing, there is free, which is suitable and not obscure...
That's just the ones that I thought up in less than fifteen seconds.
How anyone can make an assertion about one person taking *every* conceivable way of presenting the name 'nadine dorries' is beyond me. There are three people that I have knowledge of or suspect of having a spoof Dorries account, so how she can make the claim, with a handy get out, that one person has all of them is beyond me.
It also seems the danger from 'a certain blogger' has now passed and the excuse for not Twittering is lack of username.
I would consider Tweeting again, just for this cause [first past the post], however, a certain blogger has apparently taken every possible permutation of my name you can imagine.
