Snowfall?

The story of how senior auditor Anthony Snow “self-authorised” the use of chauffeured transport to take him to a conference on cost-cutting techniques has grown legs, so to speak. However the account in today’s Telegraph appears to be pretty much lifted from what appeared in Western Mail - not that further details would add much to the article.

No matter. It is far more likely that the former WAO man’s new bosses at the Financial Reporting Council will spot this version sometime today.

According to its website, the FRC is the UK’s independent regulator responsible for “promoting high quality corporate governance and standards”.

You've hit the nail on the head, as this exercise is aimed at making Mr Snow uncomfortable in his new private sector employment.
His right to enjoy that employment is enshrined in the Human Rights Act, and those who promote the publication of misleading stories that try to compromise his right should think twice.
