Watch Guido go

Blogger Guido Fawkes (aka Paul Staines) is setting the political agenda this weekend with his story of Damian McBride and the 10 Downing Street 'smear' emails. It seems they have found their way to a Sunday newspaper, although Guido today denies having sold them.
He says: "Downing Street under Gordon Brown has been particularly vicious in smearing opponents. . . Guido has hard evidence that Tory MPs have been smeared, and that a particularly vicious concerted smear operation was mounted against George Osborne. . .Some well known lobby journalists have knowingly gone along with it."
Then in a mention of his rivalry with Derek Draper, Guido adds: "This is a lot bigger than some minor bloggers spat."
This story could dominate the weekend and the Sunday papers.
