The tabloid newspapers in the UK are apparently having a field day with speculation about Home Secretary David Blunkett's sex life. The married woman allegedly involved has understandably asked to be left alone by the media, to protect her family. She and her family certainly should be left alone.

I fear the hacks will use Mr Blunkett's ad nauseum repetition of the "if you've nothing to hide, you've nothing to fear" soundbite as an excuse to hound these unfortunate folk, however.
