Labour is calling for an immediate start to the judicial phone-hacking inquiry so evidence will not be lost when the News of the World closes.

And Labour's deputy leader, Harriet Harman, told Sky News: "Think about what is going to happen at the end of today: the News of the World is going to be closed down, all the staff are going to be disappearing.
"What will happen to the computers? If a judge is really to find out what happened, not to mention the police inquiry, if all the staff are going off in different directions it would be very difficult for the judge to call on them to come and give the evidence that they know.

News International has denied reports that the paper's offices are to become a designated crime scene when journalists leave.
"Following discussions with the police, all necessary steps have been taken to secure the information necessary for their investigations," a spokesman said.

Personally I think Labour need to be less party political about this as their hands aren't clean either..
