Newspapers published details of MPs cheating expenses.
Police investigate MPs’ claims.
Newspapers published phone hacking debacle.
Police investigate newspaper reporters hacking allegations.
MPs enquire into hacking linked to police bribery allegations.

Full circle! Of course, it could be the other way around!

OMG Dermot - when I heard about the reporter yesterday Dr Kelly sprung into my mind also. I do so hope not - Dr Kelly has never been put to rest.

Police; Politicians; Press - all three beginning with the letter 'P' - all three topics constantly in the news.

I miss hearing about MPs false expenses claims.

Funny - the police investigated those wrong doings. Tomorrow, MPs are to look into police antics.

Anyone interested in running the UK during the summer while the Government & opposition are on holiday?

Very few employers would allow all employees to be away at the same time.

Also, there are a few top-rank police vacancies to be filled. :-0

'Tabloid News' is something someone somewhere does not want published. Everything else is advertising. (R4).

So Murdoch has apologised in person to the Dowler family.

The written apology really means nothing, but that goes a little way toward reparation, it takes a big person to apologise, especially one as ruthless as Murdoch, even if he is only doing it because it's all become so public.

Dermot, I don't think Brooks will be starting a new job just yet, not until this has all died down, then I think she'll just end up in charge of a celeb magazine of some sort, I really don't think it will be in newspapers again.

No doubt she procured a 'Golden Goodbye' for herself.

I cannot wait to see which new job she starts on Monday!

Nice to have the luxury of resigning - unlike the real work force who simply lost their jobs :-(

The Sun should have been charged years ago, for fraud under the trades descriptions act. It should never have called itself a *news*paper ;-)
