I lay in t’pit watching Leveson yesterday and marvelled as “Sue Akers, the deputy assistant commissioner of the Metropolitan police, told the Leveson inquiry into press standards there had been “multiple payments” by the Sun to public officials of thousands of pounds….”
The Guardian has the story. David Allen Green asked if Tom Watson MP had gone too far some months ago by using the ‘Mafia’ metaphor in relation to News International when he questioned James Murdoch.
The Yanks are none too impressed either, it would seem: New York Times — A Fresh Blot on Murdoch’s Sun
Worth reading for that headline and picture alone, brilliant!
and of course murdoch, as courted by michael gove, is just the man we want in charge of education in this country…
it just gets better. i have written to the met asking if they could lend me a horse for the weekend. the joke is the ghastly rebekarrrrgh must be knee-deep in the things given that her husband trains them. the bbc are informed that the horse has since died of natural causes. its head is alive and well and next to leveson in bed.
I think the whole sorry affair leaves us not sure whether to laugh or cry……
Immortal! I’m so going to nick this …
james (fredo) murdoch sleeps with the fishes…
Absolutely hilarous title and picture. I just had to comment.
