Missing Milly Dowler's voicemail "hacked by News of the World"

They most certainly can compel them to attend.

re: Peston

iirc Private Eye have had a few bits and pieces about his friendship with Will 'Thirsty' Lewis.

I've just chucked a load out for recylcling so can't check sadly.

I think this is more on the mark than the allegations here that the source is Rebekah Brooks.
 
Haymen being made to look dodgy in the select commitee. He was informed that. His phone was hacked, he wasn't bothered.

He admits he always wanted to be a journalist, he admits he accepted hospitality from people he was investigating for criminal offences. Then he retired and got a highly paid job working with them 2 months later, it stinks but he can't see it.
 
We can be sure of one thing - there will be nothing to directly connect Old man Murdoch with this little escapade, whatever he actually knew over the years

Brooks is fucked - RM is keeping her close in order to ensure she goes along with the plan & when its right, she takes all the shit when its time to dump her. Despite all the talk of Brooks having an family member type of relationship with RM, he is hard faced enought to dump her for the sake of his blood & his business. The longer she hides behind RM, the harder she is going to fall when its her time & Im not even sure she realises this yet.

As I mentioned a couple of days ago & about 1,0000,0000 posts ago, RM had no interest in keeping print going if it will adversley affect his Digital footprint & plans.

they will be sold off and RM will achieve his take over of BSB towards the end of the year/ early 2012 after a high court case following the initial CC decision to block the bid

wouldn't be too sure of that. not saying he will get nailed, but this has already gone far beyond anyone really hoped for - so why not?

This bit -from the Guardian coverage - is laughably incredulous. I mean what kind of fucking world does he live in!

Michael Ellis, a Conservative, asks Hayman to confirm that he received hospitality from people he was investigating in relation to a criminal offence. Hayman says that's correct.

The MPs on the committee seem to find this surprising. Hayman regards that as normal. He says it would have been odd if he had cancelled the dinner, he says.
 
HAC stuff is live here for those at work

Hayman (now retired and working for ... wait for it ... News International as a journalist) admits lunching with NI journalists during the enquiry/investigation into the First News International Hacking Affair whilst at the same time being the senior Met Officer in charge of overall of that enquiry :facepalm:
 
Phew

I would usually be all outraged out on this kind of thing by now, but the way this is unravelling real time in front of us, I cant seem to detach from it...

You know that Will Lewis is Rebekah Brooks's right-hand man, appointed for his loyalty to her when the NotW newsroom started to mutiny under her 'leadership', as well as being a close pal of Peston's, right?
 
They said earlier that they had 11 dedicated officers for the case and many helpers yet not enough manpower to skim through 11000 pages? Bollocks.

Hayman goes mental when asked if he received payments from any news corp, yet earlier admitted receiving hospitality, same thing really.
 
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. I think it's a fib, and the smirk I believe I heard in his voice is related to him gloating in the knowledge that it could never be proven and having got away with it.
 
We had this?

Former Scotland Yard detective to sue News International for harassment

Mark Lewis, a lawyer for the policeman, Dave Cook, and for his wife Jacqui Hames, told Reuters he believed the planned suit against News Group Newspapers would be the first action against the now-defunct weekly for the physical trailing and electronic surveillance of a police officer by journalists working for it.

The case is particularly sensitive for the paper, since the man accused of the axe murder, in 1987, later worked for the News of the World as an investigator.
 
Judging from the Guardian blog, Hayman really isn't making himself look good, is he?

I can just imagine the Tory MP telling him he sounds like a tabloid journalist. Nicely constructed dig that, given that he works for The Times. :D :cool:
