Retrieved <span class="nowrap">9 May</span> 2018</span>. <q>Jeremy Paxman famously said he went into journalism after hearing that the relationship between a journalist and a politician was akin to that of a dog and a lamppost. Several MPs now want to replace this with a principle whereby MPs define the parameters under which the press operates – and "work together". It is a hideous idea that must be resisted. The last time this happened was under the Licensing Order of 1643, which was allowed to expire in 1695 after the introduction of the 1688 Bill of Rights shortly after the Glorious Revolution. As I wrote in my Daily Telegraph column yesterday, it's amazing that so many Tory MPs should want to turn the clock back 300 years.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=unknown&rft.btitle=David+Blunkert+warns+MPs+against+regulating+the+Press&rft.pub=The+Spectator&rft.date=2012-11-24&rft.au=Nelson%2C+Fraser&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fblogs.spectator.co.uk%2F2012%2F11%2Fdavid-blunkett-comes-out-against-press-regulation%2F&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AFreedom+of+speech" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-de_Sola_Pool_1983_15-85"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-de_Sola_Pool_1983_15_85-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-de_Sola_Pool_1983_15_85-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFde_Sola_Pool1983" class="citation book cs1">de Sola Pool, Ithiel (1983). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://archive.org/details/technologiesoffr00ithi/page/15"><i>Technologies of freedom</i></a>.
