The Official Newscorp/UK end of season finale/Rebekah Brooks did 9/11 thread

yeah, do you know Neil?

ah fuck d'you know i never realised he was in Suede.

Sarah Gurling was at Hull around this time too.

I don't know NC at all. The one in Suede I know best (though not well) is Brett.

Hold on, NV, you know Neil but missed the Suede connection?

i knew him vaguely, i didn't pay a lot of attention to who was in Suede, or to Suede after the first album really

altho i saw them play at Hull the week before the debut album came out? Neil joined later on tho

^^^He is Simon Gilbert's cousin.

Ah okay, I was just getting my head around the idea you and he were buds but he never mentioned his day job.

"So what do you do anyway, Mr. Eastwood?"

nah this would've been 87 to 92 ish

I don't know, there's a clear BBC link to the DMill, Mandy dinner mentioned up there somewhere.

Does this mean some of the rumoured suppressed threads surrounding the RWade/RKemp marriage will now come out?

Oh, what: affair with chef GR?

is it true rebekah smacked rkemp up because she caught him in bed with some tory boy?

That and the whole beard thing.

haha, that's the story I was thinking of.

i thought we'd decided it was Phil Mitchell

I once saw them together at a book launch and R. Kemp had the most hostile body language ever.

I kind of liked the personal time I spent with RKemp but it was at a charity dinner with a number of people much harder than him.

ah, the Loose Women presenters

looooooool

Apparently there's some hilarious Fox & Friends bit where they have the NOTW as the victims, then they finish with how this foreign news isn't important anyway and that's when their Casey Anthony bit starts? (can't search, my provider has probs with youtube at the moment)

for a sec there i was wondered wtf rainer werner fassbinder had to do with this... still am but in a different way

'i was wondered' - 2:1 degree yall

xps - I once saw them at...ahem...Daylesford Organic (yea, verily, I walked into the very heart of the Chipping Norton set and ate overpriced chocolate with them) and there was a very nasty moment over a jar of organic artichoke hearts.

"If I'm not mistaken Murdoch has apologised, but FOR SOME REASON the public, the media, keeps going over this"

loooooool

James Murdoch may be arrested?

Reading rumors about same.

wow this could be the best summer ever

Thanks, Nate! It's even better than I'd read.

Am I right in thinking that Brooks is apparently still being questioned?

i'm really suspicious about these arrests before the committee thing on tuesday.

As well you should be.

Course, if *Rupert* got arrested too...

As likely as Santa Claus getting arrested for breaking & entering.
Can't shake this feeling that the whole lot of them are going to get off scott free.

from that mail "What about the REAL problems?" post

The state records our emails, spies on our rubbish bins and uses airport X-ray machines to peer sneakily at our naked bodies.

Can't shake this feeling that the whole lot of them are going to get off scott free.

After Murdoch Jr. owned up to the payments? I think not.

it may yet happen. also no police arrested yet iirc. but the committee is a spectacle, an entertaining one sure but a spectacle. starting criminal proceedings against the guilty parties is much more important in the big scheme of things.

Course, if *Rupert* got arrested too...

Can't imagine their voters in the shires are impressed at all. The pressure must be huge.

This Iain Dale goon seems distinctly unnerved by the prospect

who have the Tories got who's far enough out of the loop to take over as PM without being in the same situation in 2 weeks time?

Was just reading comments on the Telegraph and quite a lot of the top-rated comments were variations on "he must go." And that was the Telegraph.

the telegraph doesn't live cameron though, ever. comments boxes man.

'love'

Who would become PM then though? The cabinet is useless. I guess it'd have to be David Davis.

can i just nick clegg

It's Cameron's involvement that makes me think that they're all going to get out of this relatively unscathed. Junior takes one for the team and does time in an open prison, getting let out early for 'good behaviour', but that's about it.

Anyway if Blair could survive after Iraq I'm sure Cameron will be fine.

cameron doesn't control events, no-one does. there are conspiracies, sure, but cameron is clearly not on top of this situation.

Blair was not clearly implicated in criminal activity, sorry SWP fans. Cameron, as hm says, is drowning here. Surely it's time for Ann Widdecombe to form a government of national unity.

x-post OTM. Camerons been outpaced by the story at every point.

omg the idea of this
