Isn't it quiet ?
Since Exaro News published the story last night I can only find the story on the BBC.
Somehow you'd have thought that the search of the home of a former Conservative MP in connection with a police operation looking into the murder of 3 children might be a story ?
The home of former Conservative MP Harvey Proctor has been searched by police investigating historical allegations of child abuse.
The BBC understands police arrived at the 68-year-old's house on the estate of Belvoir Castle, in Leicestershire, on Wednesday.
The Metropolitan Police said officers from Operation Midland were searching an address in Grantham.
Mr Proctor has not made any statement.

Perhaps the silence could be due to the fact that the home searched was on the Duke and Duchess of Rutland's estate at Belvoir Castle ?
There has been some speculation about the relationship between the Duke of Rutland and Harvey Proctor since we published The Maxwells, Harvey Proctor, And The Marquis Of Granby' We couldn't possibly comment but I think it is fair to point out that the Duke and Duchess of Rutland no longer have physical relations. Aparently the Duke has someone else to take care of those needs who lives on the estate.
The aristocracy have always been inventive when their marriages break down. They can afford to be. A blind eye here, an understanding there, a delicate readjustment of room space to conduct their separate lives while maintaining the fiction of harmonious family life.
However, nothing so smotheringly conventional was ever going to do for the Duke and Duchess of Rutland who, at the weekend, made public their own solution to the challenges of infidelity: after 20 years of marriage, they are now living in different wings of their colossal gothic castle at Belvoir, each able to entertain a lover without undue embarrassment and to come together for occasional family meals with their five children.
"It is a situation that many might find difficult, or impossible, to fathom," wrote Emma Rutland in a lengthy, confessional article in a Sunday newspaper.

Also worth checking out is the amusingly titled article Duke Drops His Drawbridge for Harvey Proctor' . "FROM cottages to castles" it begins. I wonder what they could be suggesting ?
