Thanks to Brynley for pointing out that the BBC link I posted about 'sixty migrant workers arrested' in a Holbeach leek field in fact only refers to 'eight arrests'...
I wondered what Brynley's point was - until I revisted the BBC link and to my horror, saw that it had been amended. Rather than delete the original post, I thought it best to explain what I think has happened...
I picked up reports of 60 arrests from the BBC front page and judged it to be a significant 'local' story worth a mention on my blog...
It seems that a few minutes after I posted, the BBC updated their link, downgrading their earlier story of 60 arrests to just eight!
Looks like even eight may be more than double the actual number...
The Spalding Guardian says there were just three arrests...
Should I cancel my licence fee...?
