And if Richard finds it difficult to have to agree with me, just imagine my reluctance to applaud and agree with the following from Gordon Brown (the first time I have agreed with him since 1997).

Speaking of News International yesterday in Parliament:-

""He branded it "a criminal media nexus" which "claimed to be on the side of the law-abiding citizen" but in fact stood "side by side with criminals against our citizens", adding: "Others have said that in the behaviour towards those without a voice of their own, News International descended from the gutter to the sewer. The tragedy is that they let the rats out of the sewer."""

My only amendment to that statement would be that "They WERE the rats in that sewer!
