apparently by deleting Milly's messages her family still had some hope that she might still be alive

Hammy, I want to have some t-shirts printed: 'I warned David Cameron'

And yes. Ooh to be in Wapping now. It may have become a verb...

catinthehat2 · 08/07/2011 16:13

Imagine a souped up press complaints commission, one which could administer a privacy law to hide politicians wrongdoing, police corruption, royal extra maritals, journalists ... Well you get the idea.

That has come a big step nearer.

It will be like France, you'll only get to know this stuff if you are in the charmed London elite, forget the public interest

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:14

Apparently Rebekah will not be announcing her resignation. (guardian online)

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:15

.......but stranger things have happened ! Wink

Pannus · 08/07/2011 16:15

If they've arrested Coulson and as Paddick says they must arrest Rebekah Brooks - why wouldn't they also talk to Phil Hall 95-2000 who edited NOTW with Rebekah as Dep Ed??

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:15

An 'ex' NOTW journo, has 'ears in the meeting' and says she will.

freybean · 08/07/2011 16:16

madam can i have one of those t-shirts

maybe justine could wear one for tonight Grin

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:16

Oh, I expect they will arrest her. She will probably present herself on Monday, after she has had the weekend to prepare. Hmm

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:18

Rebekah Brooks is apologising to staff for 'operational issues' - no internet access, and 'trying to find you all jobs across News Int. and News Corps".

BrianAndHisBalls · 08/07/2011 16:19

ok, have read the q and a. don't get the rebekah bit though

so she should resign because it is assumed she must have known what they were doing? Is there any chance she didn't know?

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:20

Er, Brian Grin

No.

Bit like, did DC know AC was as corrupt as a politician ? Er, yes. Grin

freybean · 08/07/2011 16:21

think that if she didn't know then is was really shit at her job

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:21

Oh, I think she was friggin' brilliant at her job.

She kept it hidden for years.

TalkinPeace2 · 08/07/2011 16:22

Wonderful Tweet just now from Jamesmb
"I've currently received two contradictory txts - one Brooks has resigned, one she hasn't. Can someone check her voicemail?"
#NOTW is interesting reading

levantine · 08/07/2011 16:23

Of course she knew
It's inconcievable that she didn't know

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:23

Daily Star have put out a statement.

Just saying that police are following required procedures.

levantine · 08/07/2011 16:24

inconceivable

AwesomePan · 08/07/2011 16:24

Brian - here it is. There was a Big Bang, and then the earth cooled. And then a bit later Becky Brookes either allowed, or didn't halt, or encouraged staff to behave illegally, and immorally, to get stories in order to make money out of them.

I appreciate I missed a few miilion years there.Smile

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:25

"Hello. This is Rebekah. I can't come to my company phone right now as I have resigned.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

NOT".

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:25

Awesome

That would make a good book !

Miss out all the boring bits. Smile

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:28

Earlier I posted some charities that had declined ads for NOTW on Sunday.

RNLI was included.

They have just responded as saying that they were not approached to advertise, but wouldn't have anyway.

BrianAndHisBalls · 08/07/2011 16:30

bah. you all should be nice to me, i bring you this and even better, The Wolef table

mrsdonkeybucket · 08/07/2011 16:31

Saw tat last night on another thread in chat you cheatin' cheater !

Table is horrible. Bleurgh.

AwesomePan · 08/07/2011 16:35

Seriously, tho' (and it is sooo hard to be with these facts) I am a manager, with 18 people in 3 teams of various grades accountable to me, and me to them. I guess the exec team at NOTW is something simialr in number.

If I saw a 'production value' from anyone exceeding expectation, or sense, Iwould be either very fulsome in praise, AND/OR......enquiring with them exactly how they acheived this. It would be incumbent on me to do this rather than ignore it. At worst, one would have a 'staff care' issue to ensure all is being acheived legitimatly. Becky either knew, or didn't wish to know and that is a grave error and implies , at the very least, a complicity.

BrianAndHisBalls · 08/07/2011 16:35

I admit I stole the tattoo Sad

However, the table is all my own work Grin There's a wolf thread part 2 over in chat at mo, I'll even do you a background:

OP posted about a vile wolf coat
We all chimed in
The end
