    Inevitable after the week he's had, and then it transpires that he accepted a free spa break at Champneys but didn't realise that his PR man (ex-News International) was also responsible for doing the PR there as well. Claims he didn't know...

    To be completely honest, this is all getting a bit silly now. It's almost as if there's a bit of tit-for-tat going on - the journos caused shit for the MP's so now it's payback time.

    They're all a bunch of crooks anyway.

    So Obill who "retired" went and worked for NoTW and some NoTW arsewipes worked as advisors to the Met !!!!!! and they think that dont stink ? One NoTW numpty"advised" the guy who did the first OBill hacking balls up and also the Top Met Cop the number 1. Would this also be the time they all desided that there was anything worth re looking into re phone hacking and police coruption ???????




    Agree GH. Very Cosy revolving door policy between NI and The Met.

    As for the shut down, its clearly because Murdoch's son is only two arrests up the command chain.
    Make that just one, now.

    Tuesday Carly......
    But, and there is always a but, they have had since 2003, to arrest ginger and gets arrested  36 hours before she has to answer some awkward questions.
    Paddock on bbc claims that they normally do these arrests Monday to Friday...........
    Bank hours police force eh?...... although banks now open on a Saturday?

    How funny is it that Conran Total-Crook Black is now being asked for his opinion on the matter.

    The crooks are rounding on each other - It would be quite funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

    I assume they see it as the price for keeping your silcence.
    Imagine what she knows about the Murdoch's for it to be worth 3.5mil...

    The BBC's Robert Peston is strongly hinting that Murdoch's son will have to step down from  British BskyB as chairman, for the forseeable future.......
    According to Peston   Department of Justice has been in touch with Serious Fraud Office, under the US foreign corrupt act,  News corp being an American company.

    I think if any of us resigned then got arrested for something we did whilst employed- that our companies wouldn't pay us off generously until the outcome was known. So of course she and they know things and they want her to stay loyal.

    Screw starting to turn on the prime minister now such is the far reaching impact of this scandal yet where is he ? On a trade mission ! Will be a longish path but this is the beginning of end for the dodgy spineless creep.

    He knows that very few from all parties are squeaky clean when it comes to dealing with NI. The Coulson appointment was an incredibly bad decision (a risk that he didn't have to take) and will damage him to an extent but not terminally - the economy is more likely to see to that.

    There is already a lot of discontent and distatisfaction on the back benches and at constituency level where rank and file feel let down by a poor display of leadership. Once that happens the writing is on the wall and it's only matter of time.
