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

[weltweit]

There are going to be some interesting appearances in front of the parliamentary committee today, apparently an effort to show that NI management knew about the hacking before they claim they did. I don't know if it will be televised or not.

Did you see how much his payrise was though? 74%!!!! Unbelievable!!!! If your pay rises to 17m a year, of course you'll forgo a bonus of 6m to make it look like you're making a big sacrifice.

If they're obv. about the salary you know they're hiding the important parts (share options, pension contrib,etc..).

I'm quite enjoying Steve Coogan's rage.

Paul Dacre can have my fucking hard drive off my computer. He won't find anything there other than very orthodox pornography that consenting couples used recreationally. He'll be familiar with the stuff.

The Daily Mail is worse than the redtops because it has this semblance of respectability. To me the Daily Mail is like a used car salesman in a cheap suit because it masquerades as having this respectability about it and yet it peddles the same kind of hate-mongering [as] the redtops.

From earlier - Crone : secrecy and confidentiality are not the same.

duh obviously they're different. are you having trouble differentiating between them?

Not at all, but Watson had trouble.

So, Colin Myler and Crone believe that in a 15 minute meeting with James Murdoch they brought the "for Neville" email which implied phone hacking was more widespread than just the royal correspondent Clive Goodman to his, James Murdochs, attention and its implications caused them to make a decision on whether to fight a case for compensation.

James Murdoch in his earlier testimony said that at this time, the "for Neville" email and its implications were not brought to his attention.

Is there a transcripts of the anonymous letter received by some members of the committee, allegedly from a NI senior executive that was mentioned, it sounded very strongly worded.

Was it bluster when the MP asked if he was aware that any members of the committee were investigated by NOTW or is there evidence that they were?

Yes that was interesting, except that it could perhaps be a fraud. I haven't seen any copy of it.

I must have missed that bit.

Someone asked about NOTW investigating layers used by clients who were suing them (the answer was he knew of two and they were revelations about their private lives), he went on to ask if he had any knowledge that any members of the committee had been looked into.

Oh ok..

According to my radio, James Murdoch has recently said that he stands by his testimony.

Thing is, this business of collecting dirt on anyone who got in their way, or the way of their friends in government or their corrupt stooges seems to have been endemic.

Look at the way News of the World resources were used to try to collect dirt on the police officer leading the murder investigation of that private investigator ...

are you referring to Dave Cook, and the late Danny morgan here?

 

[Streathamite]

thanks, am listenning to it.

Crone seems quite clear in his recollections.

of course he is; he's fighting desperately to make sure he doesn't take all the shit for the rest.
Also, he is a lawyer

 

[butchersapron]

35 year old bloke arrested (not by prior agreement) on sus of conspiring to intercept communications. If true, given his age, that might suggest more recent activity on that front. Possibly.

 

[skitr]

I'm not too clued up on the thinking behind raids, but does the timing (5.50am) suggest they thought he might do a runner?

 

[butchersapron]

Possibly, or tyo make themselves look all dynamic.

Lates now is that Amelia HIll, the Guardian journo who with Nick Davies diod most to bring expose all this has been arrested/ interviewed under caution (differing accounts) over the police leaks. Lots of people going oh no i can't believe it, Not Amelia! Given that the Guardian was clearly getting the leaks who the hell did they expect they were being given to?

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

Amelia Hill not arrested but interviewed under caution apparently.

 

[Dan U]

so more journo's have been questioned for recieving info than police for receiving bungs.

 

[Bernie Gunther]

are you referring to Dave Cook, and the late Danny morgan here?

Yep, sorry was rushing off someplace and no time to check the names.

Of all the mysteries surrounding the British phone hacking scandal, it is the claims from a dominatrix linking Britain's now chancellor George Osborne to drug use, prostitution and political subterfuge that may be the most intriguing...

[Santino]

Beautiful.

 

[Dan U]

And he's never sued over it. Interesting..

 

[Santino]

He and Cameron have always refused to discuss such matters rather than deny anything.
