'A Void' by Georges Perec
Good book.

Surely we don't know Yates told lies to the select committee?

There's a lot of untangling of who knew what and when to come yet. And it will take patience and a prolonged effort.

Though, as a side effect, there is now room at the top of the Met for some talented women perhaps.

that's link code for CiF. your web addres goes after the first .

Hedley, thanks for that Charlie Brooker article.

I agree Morebeta and I hope Yates tells the truth this time. Frankly it looks like he lied and surely that's perjury.No one should be above the law.No one.

(Thx; I will get it at a point in the future; forget about my hijack now, and thx)

back on topic...

yates had to go. He admitted that he didn't thoroughly supervise the first investigation, he didn't take legal advice, he ignored evidence and on and on.

slug heh, there's a silver lining! Oh wait, wait, I have another conspiracy theory coming to me now....

It's the wimmin! It woz that Margaret Thatcher wot got so press-conscious, and then NI was taken over by that pernicious, scheming, red-haired bird. And it woz all a conspiracy SO WIMMIN COULD TAKE OVER THE POLICE FORCE!

RB has not been found guilty of any criminal offence through due legal process. It doesn't mean she hasn't done anything wrong!

Is DC really a lay-dee ?

Does anyone know who 'Rebekah Woods' might be? John P continually will talk of her. For many a day now. Who might RW be?

I know ! He's very 'emotional' about it all, isn't he !

I think she may be an amalgamation of R. Wade and R. Brooks ? Maybe RW is her 'nice' persona ?

Rebekah Wooks? Rebekah Brade?
ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

hedley loving that brooker article - thank you!
norman re the Telegraph story - read other accounts of the Murdoch shindig at the start of the month (not the xmas do) and you'll realise labour MPs were there, too. But the Telegraph doesn't mention them so it looks like a strictly NI/Murdoch/DC cabinet affair. Could that be because the Telegraph thinks the current administration isn't erm - Tory enough for them? (scarey thought, I know!) They have been fairly robust in their criticism of DC.

When we talk about the agendas of various groups coming together on this one, I think the Tory right wing is quite high up the list!

On BBC News it says that on a walk about around the Olympic Park, that Tony Blair was asked about the hacking and resignation of PS. He replied that "it is not the time to go into all that now".

Would we believe a word he had to say ?

Pron Jescott made good point, but who might the RWoodz be?

nope :) but he really does look like a man who looks tortured in a sold his soul sort of way.

bk which one of them are you saying had a soul to sell?
and love the tie in with the charlie brooker piece!

RB has said she will appear at SCM tomorrow, along with the Murdoch's.

Nick Clegg says that DC should "absolutely not" resign over the 'issues' but it was 'right' that PS did.

He says "this is not about the PM's position" ? WTF

anyone think any political resignations (in terms of advisors etc) will only happen during the summer recess when fewer people are around (politicos and journalists)?
