Hoey's football trip row

Minister for sport, Kate Hoey, has been accused of "sleaze" by the Conservatives after a taxpayer paid trip to watch Arsenal play in the European Cup in Spain. The Tories are to table questions about the trip in the Commons. Hoey has described the sleaze allegation as "ridiculous" and the DCMS insist that the working trip was a justified promotion of British tourism. Arsenal lost the game to Valencia.
