The police are the worst in this whole story, they knew about this for so long, corrupt as hell by the sounds of it but nobody is holding them to account.

From The Independent Has the old boy finally lost the plot?, things could get a lot worse for the Murdochs yet:
Bin Talal will have been watching News Corp's share price, which has plunged more than $3 to $15 a share, wiping billions off the value of the company, now worth around $42bn. The selling has been triggered by big US investors who fear that the Murdochs will be investigated in the US, that they face lawsuits running into hundreds of millions of dollars and that they may even be forced to give up running the company. Already, the FBI and the Department of Justice have said allegations that US citizens involved in 9/11 were the victims of phone hacking will be investigated, while News Corp is also facing inquiries by America's corporate watchdog, the Securities and Exchange Commission, over potential violations of a law that forbids US companies from bribing foreign officials – the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

I was a regular at the Sheridan trial and the defence were going tonto because NI 'lost' shed loads of emails which could provide evidence to suggest corruption.
"what happened to the emails?"
"IT in India lost them"
And this went on for days and days and the whole time I was thinking
delete from email where subject like '%sheridan%'

MSM seem to be staying very quiet about Michael Gove though. Presumably there's nothing untoward about the £5000/month he was receiving from News International.

A snip at £200k for a column which was very loosely based on its subject matter.
So who replaced him? Piers Morgans wife, Celia Walden, who is just as useless.
