Conservative Party chairman Grant Shapps has denied claims he repeatedly edited entries about himself and other MPs on Wikipedia.

Mr Shapps told the BBC the allegations - reported by the Guardian - were "categorically false and defamatory".
"It is the most bonkers story I've seen in this election campaign so far," he said.

The Guardian claims Wikipedia has blocked an account it suspects is being used by Mr Shapps.

Well, it looks as if the Shapps’ entry on Wikipedia is now locked from editing, and content has been restored.

Nice to see this section of the entry :D :

The bit on the news I saw this morning had him claiming it was all a Labour Party plot to discredit him.

Yeah, course not Grant. After all, you have no record at all of using different names for different purposes in the past, do you?
