God, those NoW journos were utter scum weren't they?

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

She probably figured that RK wasn't a 'keeper' .

Charlie Brooks has been a nobody in racing circles (where I work) for a very very long time.

Labour MP Ivan Lewis MP on the Politics Show with KatieMumsnet this morning dodged questions about Milliband warning Labour just last week not to touch some Murdoch issue (BSkyB?) for fear of retribution.

A week is such a very long time in politics.

It is relevant that she exercised her choice in both cases. She was Wade whilst married to Ross Kemp, but took the name of the OE, Charlie Brooks. And Brooks gave her the introduction to Cameron.

Interesting piece

I've seen John Prescott give at least three separate interviews where he has referred to RB as Rebekah Woods.It's either early onset Alzheimers or he is the master of the put down!

Yes I noticed that, BenHer. [hgrin]

Well Brooks or Wade she certainly likes to treat herself quote from Guardian: Brooks regularly enjoys the services of a helicopter to fly her from Battersea heliport to her Cotswolds home. Her use of a private jet for a breakfast meeting in Venice is also the subject of discussion by Wapping veterans.

emails have been found about police payments from 2007

payments to police have been going on since Caxton invented printing, but the sums involved seem to have..er..increased slightly.

the emails were at a law firm and notw had asked then to 'review' them

ffs notw have increased sales of 30%

Bugger,have i missed Katiemumsnet on the politics show?

Can anyone link it please?

Politics Show London 10/07/2011 "available soon on BBC iPlayer".

Thanks.

Pannus thank you for that link from the Shropshire Star - everyone should read it! I don't think people truly know just how feral and inhuman the red tops can be when they want a piece of you [hangry]

Interesting and rather angry article.

from Tattler.

Tatler?

Greenslade.

Me? Bitter and jealous? Nooo...

Well done Mumsnet - I've joined based on the fact that you guys have raised awareness of a need for bouycot on NOTW and NI - just trawling throught this blog now

What on earth was Rb talking about when she said that in a year the staff of NotW would understand why it had to close? Is there another rapture in the offing?

Someone said they've heard rumours that they hacked the phones of 9/11 victims / families.

I guess that would do it...

Alan Rusbridger said on the news today that they have more revelations coming all week, so I guess there is a lot more to come out.

She probably knows how much more is left to expose, so that's why she's saying it
