Who has more friends: Peter Hain, Derek Vaughan or the BNP?

Just as Virgin and Vodafone are pulling their adverts from the "look at me" website Facebook, council leader Derek Vaughan is reported by the Evening Post to have joined Neath MP Peter Hain in a bid to make friends and influence people.

Advertisers are withdrawing because their logos could appear on the same pages as the BNP.

Why don't you ask Peter Black? He's been on it for ages.

Now, the government's Central Office of Information (COI) has put a freeze on advertising on user-generated pages of social networking websites such as Facebook, the Financial Times reports.

The COI, which is responsible for organising campaigns on issues such as health, welfare and education, is reviewing its policy on using social networking sites because of concerns that lack of editorial control over user-generated content could lead to sensitive government publicity campaigns being displayed alongside inappropriate or offensive content.

I think that Derek V needs all the friends he can get - at least some who will provide him with an Assembly seat to contest! BNP might be going a bit far though...
