So Why Did Brooks Resign ??



So for some reason Rebekah Brooks has thrown in towel and tended her resignation from News International.

It was inevitable I guess considering the revelations not coming out.

Indeed the level of revelations etc are so stark I am beyond any belief that the lady in question had no knowledge of any shenanigans at all.

I mean even if she did have no knowledge, then she was certainly no fit person to be chief exec as to be that slack you have no knowledge of that kind of operation and indeed your company can give 130K in bungs (allegedly) to the Metropolitan Police, and you do not know about that, mean you are culpable in my book.

Anyway back on track ........... The investigation and indeed the course of the revelations grows more. Ms Brooks now finds herself in the mire. The Murdochs felt they could shield her but indeed the arrest of Coulson previously and yesterday the arrest Coulsons NotW deputy starts to heap the pressure on Brooks that she actually did know something.

Even Sir Paul Stevens the Met Plods chief is under the spotlight for his performance and that of his team (notice my wording there).

However when you have these 2 people this am make statements such as this .....

Firstly ...... Rupert Murdoch's daughter Elisabeth has made a “furious” attack on Rebekah Brooks’s handling of the phone hacking scandal at News International. Miss Murdoch, who is set to be given a seat on the board of her father’s News Corp empire, told friends that Mrs Brooks had “f----- the company”.

Secondly ...... Speaking on BBC Newsnight, Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal Al Saud, News Corp's second largest shareholder, said Mrs Brooks should resign if there was any indication that she knew about the phone hacking taking place at the News of the World. He said: "I will not accept to deal with a company that has a lady or a man that has any sliver of doubts on her or his integrity."

So it appears that cracks are starting to appear now in the NI facade.

IMHO Brooks knows everything. The Murdochs attempts to shield her are intentional because she knows were the bodies are buried. Coulson, the deputy and now the Met Chief will all cough up to save their skins and their guilt edge pensions.

What we do not know however is what the deal is behind the scenes for Brooks to walk away, face the music, do the time and no doubt keep her big gob shut.


Mind you I have an idea! Her ex hubby Ross Kemp, apart from laughing his arse off this morning, can now go and do one of those famous award winning series he does ...... you know "Worlds toughest Gangs" etc.




Wonder what you could call that series? "Worlds most dishonest ex wives"!!!!!!!

It was only a matter of time !




Didn't see that coming ................ Nosireeeee !!!!!!!!!!

Gordon is Shocked ........... And so am I !!!!

Oh dear,

We see now that Gordon Brown is as I quote "shocked" by the news he may have had his phone hacked.

see here

Indeed I do find that rather a strange statement to make as he was to be honest, the most hated PM in history, in the eyes of the Murdoch empire!!

So quite frankly ......... I AM ALSO SHOCKED !!

So with the current revelations on going he thought he was immune and is now shocked !!!!!!!!!!

hhhhmmmmmmm ......... bigger cretin than i thought!!

However in his defence ....... the sheer fact that (and I know until proven) they sought to use his children as a story line is just repellent. For that i hope they rot.

However the reason for this post is one of balance.

I am no fan of Brown at all .......... however I will defend the right of the privacy of his children. He is another matter but not via his kids.


So Gordon you have my total sympathy for the intrusion. For once I feel for you, and more to the point the wee ones. I and hope that whoever has done this is prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

However a word of warning.
Please be very careful!!

When info gets about that your wife was the organiser of a certain Mrs Murdoch's 40th birthday party, and other photos of family members are open in the info sphere such as this here ...........


.......... you might actually find people view this as more as cheap political posturing rather than actual family grief.


God ......... we all love a hypocrite !!!!!!!!!!

A big hat tip to Guido and the much missed Cheese blogspot (Hat tip Mark)

Gordon Brown: I'd still be PM if hacking claims had been aired earlier



Gordon Brown: I'd still be PM if hacking claims had been aired earlier.

Yep he's only gone and said it .......... read the whole joke here !!!!!

Oh how long and loud did I laugh when I read this story.

In fact I am still laughing some nearly 2 hours later.

Former PM believes he could still be in No 10 if new allegations relating to Andy Coulson had emerged before the election

Gordon ............ You are still totally deluded aren't you??

You are so far devoid of reality its unreal.

Yes the truth will come out about the NotW in due course, but lets get some things straight.

Tony Blair easily ass kissed up to Murdoch as much as any Tory ever has.
Labour actively sought out and encouraged the enhanced relationship between itself and NI.
Tony Blair was given and accepted many many hospitality function (chose my words there carefully) during his time as PM from NI.
Milly Dowler died and as a result had her phone hacked under a labour government watch
The 7/7 victims died and had phones hacked under a labour government watch.
The Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts started, causing servicemen to die and have their phones hacked under a labour government watch.



What you cant accept Gordon is your failure still.
Your lack of being a credible leader.
Your skill level.
Your fiscal policies which are now coming home to roast
Your temper
Your drug taking
The fact NI hated you and as a result removed support from YOU causing the loss in support from the labour party.
Any other leader in charge may well have kept the support and as a result kept the No10 job.
It was you Gordon ............. you, your style, your appearance, your personality that failed.
Do not come out with some crap like that in order to attempt some cheap publicity and chest beating.

You pathetic sad excuse for a man !!!!!!!!!!

News of the World !!



The sordid tale of the loss of 168 years of newspaper history.
Once branded a world leader.
A bastion of reporting!

There are many many more accomplished bloggers out there who will write at length and far more lucid than my wee "pile O pish" here.

I do not need to write about ..........

Murdochs motives
The Blair years and the NotW relationship
Millibands Invites to do's
Camerons employment of Coulson
Tory party and Murdoch
Closure of the NotW
Brookes not being cut loose
Tommy Sheridan
Coulsons arrest
Milly Dowler
Dead Servicemen
7/7 Victims
Met Police corruption and bungs

The list goes on ..........

However.....

Scotland Yard detectives are to reveal why their first News of the World investigation failed, if the Government pays them a large sum of cash in used notes.

Metropolitan Police chief David Watterson made the pledge today as David Cameron launched an independent inquiry into the News of the World phone hacking scandal.

Cameron has vowed to leave no stone unturned in the pursuit of truth and has demanded “why did the first police investigation fail so abysmally?”

Chief Superintendent Watterson told The News Grind today: “There is absolutely no need to have this independent inquiry into the News of the World. I have a crack team of officers more than happy to reveal what’s going on … if the price is right.

“Brown envelope, £2,500, leave it behind the fourth bin at the back of Scotland Yard. Bung in a monkey and we’ll pull Andy Coulson over for speeding. How does that sound?”

A spokesman for the Prime Minister said he was appalled at the comments made by the Scotland Yard chief.

“It is absolutely disgusting,” the Downing Street spokesman said, “For a monkey we’d expect Coulson to be fitted up on trumped up drugs charges at the very least.”


Yes that bit is tongue in cheek on an otherwise "vile taste in the mouth" story.


However ask yourself the question why

Why would and I admit it has finally to be proven in a court of law .......... Why would someone or an institution go to these lengths? To weave a web so vile that it ends up in a clusterfuck of this magnitude!!?


I will tell you why!!

Simple it is because of US.

Our dirty little obsession with all things salacious and filthy. We love hurt misery and pain. And if we can get our hands on it we thrive on it. As a nation we just crave it like an addict craves smack. How on earth can we have so many publication surviving without someone buying copies of them all the time.

Without this need perhaps a news group may not have needed to go quite this far in order to have that bit more of edge .......... to have "THE SCOOP".

So let the law deal with Brookes, Coulson, Cameron, Blair and whom ever else has made an error of judgement and been party to this sordid mess...........
Let the law deal with the supposed up holders of the law in the Metroplitain police, and the bung takers who put on said uniform...........

But also let the public take a look also at itself and perhaps, just perhaps you might want to change your attitude to life and others, and think again about your constant need to fuel your appetite for everyone elses misery .............


Just saying !!!!!!!!!
