JULIE Kirkbride, fresh from the Downing Street rugby dust-up, has switched her attention to some of the more interesting job adverts being taken out by the Government and local councils.

She's unhappy with where they are being placed - as it could lead to the country being run by "left-wingers".

The focus of her anger is the Society section in the Guardian newspaper, which offers scores of public sector jobs every Wednesday.

Posts include "smoking cessation officers" and a Central Doncaster Action Plan Support Officer.

She reckons the people who read the adverts may not represent a "decent cross-section of society" - leaving the country at the mercy of Labour-voting, anti-war liberals.

Now she is writing to every Government department to find out how much money they are spending on adverts in the Guardian, compared to elsewhere.

Julie, the Tory culture, media and sport spokeswoman, said: "It is in the taxpayers' interests to know where this money is being spent.

"I am concerned that the Government should seek to attract people from a cross-section of society, rather than a section which comes from a certain point of view."
