WHY ALL the fuss about the your Virginia Bottomley article? This woman has elected to make a profession of being in the public eye. She has, therefore, no more right to personal privacy than those other hard-done-by public figures, the Royals. All of them are prepared to accept the benefits of their (subsidised) lifestyles. Why should they quibble about the disadvantages?
