Both Murdochs have now accepted they have to appear in front of MPs next week.

"He was paid £24,000 by Scotland Yard to work as a two-day-a-month consultant."

I wouldn't mind a job like that....

It gets more horrendous by the day. Funny how one wrinkled old Ozzie kept Maggie in power and got rid of Kinnock with a simple headline in the Sun - 'would the last person to leave the country switch the lights off'.

Then the wrinkled old Ozzie switched his allegiance to the smoothie Blair, and the British public fell for it again.

The wrinkled Ozzie knew that he could never work with dour Brown and single-handedly got us the coalition.

Cameron can't claim credit for what might be his downfall, he jumped on the band-wagon when the British public finally rebelled on hearing that the wrinkled old Ozzie had authorised hacking Millie Dowler and the Sohan girls.

I don't know about hacking the 9/11 victims, but it would run true to form for the wrinkled old Ozzie who wouldn't recognise human decency if it jumped out on him.

Well it will be ok. when they are all hung drawn and quartered. We can rely on the Mirror the arm of the labour party and the Guardian the spokespiece of Cable and the lib-dems to tell us how to vote. It's gonna be a whole new world, so excited I can't wait for the Circus to begin and watch that Rebecca get her just deserts...all the UK's problems will be solved That's what they have been saying this week "A victory for the people"

I share your cynicism. It seems likely Murdoch will sell his remaining, loss-making newspapers to the pornographer heading the Express group, Desmond something.

I suppose voting for bums and tits is just as valid as voting for Murdoch's stooges.

think it will be difficult to prove that Rupe authorised it
should be possible to prove from the accounts ledgers that James and Medusa approved payments in various directions

perhaps Mulcaire will start to talk now

And Sir Paul Stephenson has been called into an emergency meeting with Boris to explain what is happening - is this another head on the block ??

So now Rebekah Brooks, the Murdochs golden girl has resigned.

More trouble down at mill perhaps ?

Quite a few arrows heading back in the other direction now, with the promise of more to follow.
Should be quite an interesting show this next week when the main players arrive on stage.

Rebekah dropped a bit of a clanger last week by admitting the illegal payments to the police.
It was also mentioned this morning that she initially turned down the MPs expenses story, which was then taken up by another rag.
I wonder why ?

Orpington or Rhode Island Red ?

sounds like she was getting a conscience - not normal to find a journalist who allows moral judgement to get in the way of a good story.

There seems little doubt that way down the line a few of the sillier journalists will go to prison for a short time, followed by a few of the sillier, low-level police officers - much like the MPs and Lords , those daft enough to make their prosecutions simple matters.

Our press will be less free in the future and PC's will only patrol the streets if accompanied by a lawyer, if at all.

The country will be run by hooded posses.

Yes that is the main agenda for all the MP's in this. No more stories about MP's on the gravy train, showing their well endowed underpants on the web etc

My attitude is quite simple. Had I broken the law in such a cavalier fashion, I would have been dining off the Queen's porrige supply for quite some time.

I fail to see why others should get a lesser penalty, especially those bent coppers and MPs who were supposed to be in a position of trust.
