Lord Hunt, the chairman of the PCC and a former Tory cabinet minister along with the Torygraph executive Conrad Black who was convicted and jailed in the USA for fraud and obstruction of justice are expected to present proposals for press reform aimed at sidestepping any fresh legislation that might emanate from the Leveson inquiry.

The proposal is expected to be welcomed by British Prime Minister David Cameron, Richard Desmond, one-time publisher of specialist titles such as Reader's Wives and Asian Babes and the Daily Wail editor Paul Dacre but not by Clegg or Ed Miliband, who both seem to favour legislation.


Cameron continues to impress with the company he keeps . . . I wonder whether they all get together with the Brooks and the Murdochs for country suppers? ;)
 
It's a pity it's Stockhausen who's posted this thread, because he's right on this one but will be ignored and laughed at without anyone even reading the thread.

It's wrong that Hunt should be involved in legislation that aims to get News Inc off scott-free. The whole thing reeks of chums helping chums out with no interest in what the public wants and expects of politicians and the press.

Hunt is the same person who's been exposed as having a bias for the BskyB takeover deal that eventually failed in the wake of the newspaper scandal.

lolstockhausen has a superb talent at taking a serious issue, adding his personal bios and bile spin to it, and causing people to completely ignore his points. On 99% of the time this is fine, as he spouts complete ****, but on the (extremely) rare occasion he may actually post something worthwhile, it's lost in the piles of manure.

as a constituent of jeremy *cough* unt, its amazing he never writes back to me when I challenge him on his brown nosing of news corp or anything for that matter, I guess he only writes back to wealthy constituents who vote tory, the guy is an utter sleaze ball.

I recently put info posters up on the door of his constituency office about the dodgy dealings of news corp, I guess he was too busy to get someone to take them down it was 4 days before they noticed, I guess a big poster proclaiming hunt was in bed with news corp was the image they wanted for their office door :D
 
In the interest of fairness I need to point out that when I said Hunt in the OP is the one who was found out to be in bed with Murdoch regarding the BskyB deal, I was wrong. They're two different guys but they have the same aim - to get News Inc off clean and to continue their illegal practices.

You really would think that someone posting on a forum named Overclockers.co.uk would know the difference between BIOS & bias . . . apparently not ;)

Any opinion on the cosy relationship between Tories and the meeja?

(also do a bit of reading on what this 'convicted fraudster' actually got convicted for in the end)
