Phone Hacking : A Nasty Business

It would be an act of incredible stupidity of the government allowed the Murdoch take-over of BSkyB.

The Murdoch empire's grasp on British media is too extensive already. The notion that this should be extended at the very time that News International's unsuitablity to be in control of ANY media is becoming more and apparent, is just awful.

Let's be clear. Phone hacking of victims of crime and terrorism is vile enough. It is now suggested that NI journalists are bribing police officers. This is corruption pure and simple and it eats away at decency and honesty in public life.

No Murdoch takeover of BSkyB, an independent investigation of immoral and allegedly illegal activity and a full disclosure of the links between NI, police and government are the minimum that should come out of this scandal.

And remember, don't buy the News of the World!
