Whatever happens, we've now crossed a line as NI's power and influence is diminishing by the minute.
Indeed, for another week or two.
A couple of months from now, well, lets see, shall we?
What might be interesting is that by the time the Shagger Sheridan rematch is schduled, we'll have forgotten all this and have moved on, and the rematch might just bring it back to fore. Anyone fancy some odds on an out of court settlement?

Surprised that you need it explained to you, but here you are anyway
Labour are not the party in power
Nobody really cares what the party not in power do or say.
When this was actually happening, Labour were the party in power and their behaviour, not just in cosying up to Murdioch but in a whole raft of other area was totally reprensible really bad (keeping simple for you there). But so what? They're not the party in power, no one cares. The Tories are in power which means they're the focus of media (that's the newspapers and stuff) attention. If they point at the labour banches and say it all happened during Labour time and that makes labour no better, it'll look like cry baby tittle tattle. So Labour get away with it. Like I said in my postHad it been pre-election, labour would be getting it and the Tories would be on the sidleines cheering.
But then that was the second sentence, maybe you dodnt feel the need to read that far before pronouncing.
NoThanks for seeing the need to fix anything I say - if you don't agree with it then say so you're probably right. I'm fairly confident in my inability to say what I mean
You're welcome
Gosh BigButSlimmerBloke, I had no idea you were so childish.
Still, live and learn eh ? 😀
If we can all stop bickering...
Read the Peter Oborne article I posted up there^^ - as far as he's concerned, all partiesd are as up to their neck in NI complicity as anyone else.
Also, if you need to be convinced about the Labour apporach to NI post election (and, importantly), post Mili's election, read the leaked Tom Baldwin memo from January 2011 to Labour front benchers:

Note that Baldwin is ex News International....
Why do folk say "Call-Me-Dave"? What's that all about then? Is it too matey?
I don't recall that grinning ****wit being pulled up as "Call-Me-Tony"
Mr Cameron like to be called Dave
In the same way as Tony was, you know, a straight-up kinda guy
So NI is closing down NOTW.
Clever politics by Murdoch, to shut it down and separate it from NI as a whole. Even though we all think/know it is indicative of the morality of NI as a whole, proving it becomes more difficult now, and gives the police and politicians to kick it into the long grass and cover their own asses.
Closing down NOTW is nothing more than a cynical re-branding exercise. Sunday Sun will be on sale from the following week...
Absolutely, but it still gives the establishment the "out" they needed from the current mess.
so does this mean sheriden will get let off and probably get a fat pile of compensation too?
and if coulson gets sent down would he dob cameron in 1st?
