>> Judgement day <<

What matters to the press

2000: William Hague is leader of the Conservative

party and happily lobbies for benefactor

Michael Ashcroft to get a peerage, despite

knowing he would be a non-dom, not paying full

UK tax, then denies these facts for 10 years.

2010: Hague shares a twin hotel room with a

junior aide.

Question: which of these got the press and

Conservative MPs in a lather about Hague's

"lack of judgement"?
