Ah, you have me there. I have my avatars switched off. Some of them attract the attention of passing Nosey Parkers at work.

Now that we're on the subject, I always thought T.C.W.O.A. Brown was ahead of his time as a pop act, and would also have made a better Chancellor than his cousin Gordon.

I really couldn't care a jot. And I probably should but, quite frankly, I can't even remember the objective of this committee.

I do feel sorry for that murdered teenage girl's parents though. terrible that they were led to believe that she had answered her mobile when, in fact, it was because it was hacked by a NOW journalist. .

I have no idea what you are talking about. You see there's not caring a jot, but somehow knowing all about it. And there there is really not caring, and being totally oblivious.

Maybe we should but these so called revelations about the M.O. of the gutter press along with the sway they hold over our politicians hardly comes as any surprise.

And the interminable faux indignation and hand wringing from the liberal media is just, as the OP states, excruciatingly tedious.

I say call those responsible for that outrage to book and wind the whole damn thing up.

The media luvvies and politicians love it, with the latter in their Westminster bubble perhaps hoping it'll help distract the public from the current depression. Also, with politicians there's obviously an element of payback for their past subservience to the Murdoch empire.

In truth, practically everyone else, including myself, finds it all as mind-numbingly tedious and interminable as you.

An after all that what did it fix?
