But it's such an obvious frame, too

I could go on Wiki and edit out unflattering references to Labour figures and then leak the fact that that had been done to make it look like they'd done it themselves

Some freelancer may have done this for a story

Someone who hates wotisface for personal/business reasons may have done it to make him look shifty

Who knows?
