Mostly because the majority of my posts on the subject have been from the neutral perspective of an observer.
The Times report from the other day (which appears to have prompted Vera Baird to appeal for her to step down) was in no way more damning than anything that was already in the public domain (and was completely unconnected with the conflict of interest re: her brother), yet the sole purpose of the article seems to have been to pile on more pressure for her to resign.
