Actually this is probably the best description of the people who have been leaking the IPCC's progress on their investigation since it started...malicious leakers!Originally posted by Lucifer Box
Mind you when you think about it I dont blame these people as they are nothing more than the stooges for the tabloids. I wonder if the government passed a law that forced tabloids NOT to pay for stories how quickly these leaks would dry up?

Mailman,
Are you thick or what? What's the difference between a "leaker" and a "whistleblower"? Just depends on which side of the fence you are. From the general public's point of view there's no difference. The more the merrier - then we can see what happens ...
Lucifer's posts sum it up well.Hard Brexit now!

England would most certainly benefit from some kind of media watch dog...then we couldnt get contrived stories such as Sven being set up in Dubai.

I think the thick one here is you if you cannot tell the difference between a whistle blower (someone who squeals on the poor running of a hospital) and a leaker (someone who deliberately leaks a document/report in an effort to derail any justice process that is still churning over).Originally posted by sasguru
I dont blame if you if you cant tell the difference because you have grown up in the English system that encourages you not to think for yourself

Get a grip, Mailman, you are talking utter bollox. So who decides who's a "whistleblower" and who's a "leaker"?Comment

Well I guess they could submit whatever document they want to leak/blow to a review commitee, and then the commitee can, after due deliberation, decide.
This would of course be a totally impartial commitee made up of loyal party members selected for their adherance to the party line.Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

underminging..... quality!!!Well you tell me why you think the goons who have been deliberately underminging the investigation in to the brazilians shootings are whistle blowers and not malicious leakers?
also, what are they undermining, if not a cover-up? These "leakers" have been highlighting an attempt to cover-up the misfunctioning, if they are undermining anything, it is the cover-up, not the investigation (rest assured there would not be any investigation if the Met thought that they could cover their tracks with no one being the wiser)
Mailman, you are blinded by your attachment to Blair's (both Blair actually) policy in Iraq and subsequent support for GWB's war on terror. I happen to kind of agree with the war in Iraq and all that but as an excuse to shoot innocent people and trying to pretend it's "just one of these things"? No chance! Remember, next time, it might be youChico, what time is it?Comment
