Cameron isn;t coming out of this NotW thing too well is he?
Love watrching a politician squirm
More to come I reckon, he may not survive this one!
Prescott of all people wrote to him in 2009 warning him about Coulson ... he didn't even have the courtesy to reply... seems Prescott weas right.. and that is not something you can often say!
It is all a sorry mess. The press, the police, the politicians... they are full of lying, self serving, cheating scum... no wonder the general population in the UK are becoming more and more dishonest when this lot are the role models!!

All Cameron has done is hire the guy. At the interview, I dare bet he didn't come clean about anything illegal he'd done.
Just another `none event` for Miliband to get his face on TV, saying how thing would be different under labour.
And while Miliband is slagging Cameron / NOTW / and Murdoch off, if anyone watched Newsnight the other night, Miliband squired in his seat when asked, why he never mentioned anything to Murdoch when he met him a couple weeks ago. He just carried on blaming the Torries.........

When the Guardian published what tuirned out to be facts about him they were hauled in front tof the IPCC and told to desist from wilfully misleading the public.
Turns out they were right all along and Camneron chose to ignire it in the pursuit of power.
He knew damn well what Coulson was up to, but thought it would be hushed up!
Nice to see yet another sleaze ridden government in power! This is precisely why I didn't waste my time voting!!!
AND if it was Brown or Blair you lot would be all over it like a rash... f**king hypocrites!!!

Er many people including Prescott warned Cameron about Coulson back in 2009. He chose not to even listen.

Cameron didn't ask the right questions. Which he should have done and steered as far clear as he could. But he's in thrall to the media god, ol' Rupe! Unfortunately, young Ed can't actually throw stones as the glass house is very brittle around his neck of the woods ... a certain Tom Baldwin. If you don't know his name I'm sure your old mate Google will help out.They're all as bad as each other.
However, before we all slavishly agree nto more 'curbs on the press', it's worth saying that the 'dodgy dealings' we're all appalled by are actually illegal acts (phone hacking, paying off police, etc etc) which need no further laws/regulation/statutes to enforce!

Really you are too much a drama queen. Our system isn't perfect but it's miles better that most of the world governments, we have a process, a constitution which self corrects.
In the most corrupt systems of government you wouldn't even know about this sort of thing, still less have a public debate about it.

The thing is to me it would be insulting Cameron's intelligence and that of his advisors to think he did not know at least some of the trith about Coulson... I genuinely don't think he or anyone else thought it would come to this.

This thread is a prime example of why those in government nowadays spend so much of the time they should be devoting to looking after the best interests of this country (i.e. governing) to covering their own backsides.
The real story here is the illegal hacking of phones, hindering of a live police investigation and bribing police officers for information by some employees of News of the World. Blaming this on the Tories is somewhat of a stretch.
However, best not look a gift horse in the mouth.
I expect governing this place can be somewhat soul-destroying at times.
