John Yates Debate with Andrew Neil, Charles Kennedy & Peter Kirkham - NOTW Phone Hacking *NEW*

[boondoggle6]

yates has moved on and we await more revelations of police wrongdoings, inept procedures and wilful spending of public funds on entertaining news international journalists.

Is Andrew Neil wearing an MCC tie?

[Biratakalar]

Andrew Neil, is no better than those rotten people in NoW.

[cinesimonj]

@Biratakalar You're saying Andrew Neil has been engaged in illegal activity to get scoops and troll for damaging information about politicians to hold against them and use as leverage?

That's interesting - love to hear more. Where's the research indicating that?

Or is your claim just the standard and cliched false equivalency so many people like to engage in now: 'I don't like him, therefore he must be corrupt'?

[Biratakalar]

@cinesimonj I am not saying Andrew Neil has been engaged in recent illegal activities. It is his long association with Murdoch's business that's makes him a hated figure to certain section of the public. He even went on to write column for Daily Mail. And Daily Mail? I dont see any true journalism there, its full of sensational fabricated stories aimed at creating tension in the society. If only Daily Mail was printed on a softer paper, the best use of it would be to use it as toilet paper.

It is worth mentioning that the host, Andrew Neil, is the former editor of the Sunday Times. A Murdoch paper.

@jacksawild yeah he used to work for fox news aswell apparently! Pretty transparent the way he went after galloway a few wks ago!

[cinesimonj]

@Meila2SunsetBeach I hate him for his politics too - but to then approach him in a black and white manner and claim he's just as bad as NotW, is to behave just like so many right wingers do.

It's a trap to see the world the way the right wing does.

@jacksawild And watching Keith Vaz doing the grilling reinforces what a shower of corrupt low lives we have in charge.Corrupt politicians,police,journalists etc,how do we expect anything to be done?They'll offer up a couple of sacrifices and then carry on their little games once we get bored listening.

[jacksawild]

@suffern63 Indeed. I fear I may have run out of tears, though. Who was it who said: "For evil to take root in the world, all it takes is for good men to do nothing."?
