That should make them easy to spot!

I just found it a strange description of Tom Watson, given who was sitting at the other side of the table

Completely agree.

A democratically elected MP with no criminal convictions compared to the CEO of News International whose company has been involved in phone hacking a murdered schoolchilds mobile phone as well as countless other illegal activities.

Strange perspective.

I always make that mistake


Rogue it should be

Well indeed. And Watson is one of those who have continued to push the case, even when it seemed like pushing against an un-openable door. I can't believe anyone thinks that's a bad thing – not least given what we've been finding out for the last few months.

For me Murdoch came out of that as someone who shouldn't be in charge of a company as he clearly doesn't have the skills or the nous to see things that are staring him in the face. He didn't appear to have much clue what went on on his watch and seemed to think that paying out vast sums of money to prevent something going to court was not worthy of further query.

I wonder how he got the job.

Either that or he was flim-flaming as he knew he couldn't admit the truth as that would put himself in clink!

His whole defence revolved around 'I wasn't there', 'I don't remember' and 'I didn't know'.

He hasn't been the only one who's come out looking totally incompetent from this whole sorry episode....His dad, Brooks, Coulsen, they've all looked like non-managerial material through it all....By all accounts working for News International as a journo is like being a 8 year old in a candy shop, without the shopkeeper being there - a licence to do all the things you know you shouldn't do, but suddenly can.

And to think our PM thought that Coulsen was savvy enough to have at the heart of Government....

What blatent agenda is that?
To get to the bottom of the whole rancid business?

Fine by me.

I read that NI gave Rebekah Brooks £1.7m, a paid-for office in London and a chauffeured limo as a severance package.

That'll teach her.

You really have to wonder what kind of 'relationship' her and the Murdochs had/have??....
