Moyhu wins the prize for actually bothering to track the GWPF and its waste-of-time “inquiry”. That’s about all there is to say, really. I could take the piss out of them a bit more I suppose but it hardly seems worth the effort. Terence Kealey (chairman) (now deadlink; see the archive instead) ends up looking like an idiot, which in GW terms he probably is; rapidly heading Emeritus I’d guess.
I must remember to add it to WATN in 2016; speaking of which, has anyone seen any life out of AW’s poor stillborn paper?
NS must be an elephant: he can also remember the OAS.

WMC: “Since all of this was a PR stunt to get their words into the Torygraph, I wonder if the right answer is to write to the Graun and Indy to see if they feel like writing a “Torygraph falls for GWPF fakery” type article? -W”
Now after the anniversary would be a good time. Could make a nice story together with the worries of the House of Lords about the editorial dependence of The Times on the GW Policy Foundation.

Considering that AW must have massively cherry-picked his 400 stations, he may well be in peer-review purgatory. And considering that he won’t even tell us which stations he’s using until after publication, we may never know how big a steaming heap this thing really is. Or was.
