Right for all of the supporters saying Brenda gave her name to Martin Brunt.
No she did not. That was give by the dossier gatherers. Here is my cite
A dossier compiled by a third party came into Martin Brunt's hands. He was not willing to say where the dossier had come from.
Martin Brunt was asked how did he make the connection between the dossier and @sweepyface as she was not named and there was no indication of a name and address.
One of his sources told him that she was Brenda Leyland and Leicester(shire/area?)
Brunt said he had done basic Internet searches and found two Brenda Leyland's in Leicester.http://www.gerrymccannsblogs.co.uk/Brenda_Leyland.htmSo Martin Brunt was given her name and her county. Hardly he found her all by himself. Even he has said that he only did basic internet searches to find. He was given her on a plate IMO.
Did Martin Brunt ever converse with Brenda on twitter. I have read her tweets and seen no replies from Brunty and a mention that he was following her.
So IMO unless someone can provide cites there is no evidence that Brenda had any idea that Martin Brunt was taking any interest in her apart from following her on twitter.
