. A speech in which David Cameron said the internet would help people hold politicians to account was among those deleted.
. The Conservatives have removed a decade of speeches from their website and from the main internet library – including one in which David Cameron claimed that being able to search the web would democratise politics by making "more information available to more people".
. The party has removed the archive from its public website, erasing records of speeches and press releases from 2000 until May 2010.
. The effect will be to remove any speeches and articles during the Tories' modernisation period, including its commitment to spend the same as a Labour government.
. The Labour MP Sheila Gilmore accused the party of a cynical stunt, adding: "It will take more than David Cameron pressing delete to make people forget about his broken promises and failure to stand up for anyone beyond a privileged few."
MY OPINION :
the government has the power to delete and add anything they like/dislike on the web.
