When looking at all whats gone on its disgusting the hacking of ordinary people who lost relations. However more concerned of political influence of all this.

I more inclined to fear what has murdock done politically over the years. Like someone said has trust gone from people in the whole polical system. Could this be final nail to after cash for peerage, MP's corruption of expenses and now this.

I am shocked that it goes way back to thatcher period of News Corp influence in politics. Wonder if this should be another investigation in murdock affairs. Has there been any policies made by previous governments to appease murdock empire.

Its seem politics needs a massive clean up for people to trust its not corrupt/unethnical.

Now we come to present how much was Murdocks influince when cameron set purge on quango's. Seem to remember he directly quoted ofcom in his statement about quango's. Is murdock using cameron to get his way to try create a smooth run in trying to buying BSKYB and that ment needing to water ofcom power. I think this needs investigating to make sure no pressure and influence took place.


Did murdock try it on with previous prime ministers although accepted his courtage they made sure it was not a deep relationship to cloud policy decisions or was they too in bed bigtime. If they kept guarded relationship did Murdock think at some point a prime minister naive enough would come along embrase him in big way then he had power. Sadly at present worried about this cosy relationship Cameron has its looking like he's that naive prime minister.
