Milly Dowler's voicemail was hacked by News of the Screws

I don't know anything of their relationship so I could be well off, but it must leave you feeling pretty hollow somewhere along the line on both accounts having a marriage like that. If it's real love with no other considerations then fine, but I can't see it somehow... I don't suppose that's an issue exlusive to him though.

It's not so bad when you get to fill that hollow with £50 notes.
 
I'm not sure why David Cameron would resign over this?

Have you missed the bit about sections of the Conservative backbenchers being furious about this 'storm in a teacup' that DC allowed to happen through his own stupidity?

A lot of people seem to be getting mad over nothing, right enough... ;)

He was away to speak to the 1922 committee today to try and kiss and make up.. I'd like to be a fly on the wall in there.
 
It will never reach the PM. At least not to the extent that it implicates him enough in any way to resign.

Not directly, no, in terms of the NoTW. The political damage has reached the PM, yes. That implication alone is not enough for him to resign, but the fall out if this continues could very well in the end cause him to move on. We are still in the early days as well in terms of actually understanding, if we ever will, all the aspects to this disaster in the establishment.

At the moment he's been doing fine, largely by staying as far away as possible ;)

Indeed, poor chap was in Nigeria, I bet he was glad about that until all this got so big that one of his advisors said "uh, yeah you're probably gonna have to go back for this" haha
 
I thought so too but she said it was 'public knowledge' :confused:

Hmmmm.

They cancelled the PM's press statement today co-incidently, and the odds are increasing for him to leave office.

I heard someone say 16-1 this morning but I couldn't verify it.

Uh oh for Brooks- I'm sure (and it's quoted on the BBC live updates from the committee meeting) that she said the Osborne thing was public knowledge. I'm not so sure how much that is the case- BBC News commentary at the moment stating that as a 'revelation' uncovered today. I don't think Downing St is going to be a particularly serene place to be tonight.
 
Just came across this - I'll leave it up to you guys to decide whether to believe it or not.

The Evening Standard yesterday interviewed Chris Bryant about his tireless efforts to investigate phone-hacking. This, understandably, annoyed Rebekah Brooks (nee Wade). Here's Bryant's version of his last meeting with Rupert Murdoch's favourite seemingly Teflon-coated, flame-haired executive:

"She came up to me and said, 'Oh, Mr Bryant, it's after dark -- shouldn't you be on Clapham Common?"

"At which point Ross Kemp [the ex-EastEnders actor and her then husband] said, 'Shut up, you homophobic cow'
 
Sky have got some emails they have said, couldn't quite make out what the detail was but it is something to so with advisors in Downing Street not briefing David Cameron about something.
