Rideout confirmed the Bond Papers' story from Thursday, even though he initially said it was poppycock.
But...
Rideout, meanwhile, said that while the new rules are not yet law, they will be followed anyway — at least within the PC caucus.If the Tories can be ordered to live by The Rules within their own caucus, why weren't The Rules just put in place?
Members were sent an advisory to live by Green's recommendations concerning donations and discretionary spending.
Partisan game?
Suck and blow at the same time?
Rideout's explanation doesn't make sense.
