Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Perhaps, he was playing chess.

.

You win that one Fred

Can't remember!

Was A Coulson in charge of Data collection for Cameron and the party, or was he just an honest "Communications Officer"?

I would like to have information on the collection of information by "our" security services etc.

Perhaps, the information being collected is as hollow information as that on WMD.

I hope that the "Judge" in charge of any "enquiry" is a little better than the "Butler enquiry" and not parachuted into for political needs,

I wonder if George and Dave's families have share in Sky B. and the hold up is so they can dump their holdings?

Just an unpleasant thought.

This Sunday's issue of the News of the World will be the last edition of the paper, News International chairman James Murdoch says.

I hear they are going to print the sun on Sunday. Will page 3 be allowed. lol

A statement also from James Murdoch (News International Chariman):

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14070822

in which he says:

...."This Sunday will be the last issue of the News of the World. Colin Myler will edit the final edition of the paper.

"In addition, I have decided that all of the News of the World's revenue this weekend will go to good causes.

"While we may never be able to make up for distress that has been caused, the right thing to do is for every penny of the circulation revenue we receive this weekend to go to organisations - many of whom are long-term friends and partners - that improve life in Britain and are devoted to treating others with dignity.

"We will run no commercial advertisements this weekend. Any advertising space in this last edition will be donated to causes and charities that wish to expose their good works to our millions of readers.

"These are strong measures. They are made humbly and out of respect. I am convinced they are the right thing to do."

Hear No10 is in turmoil.

Trying to make a decision over SKy B and getting it right.

Frightened of the Murdock press giving them the thumbs down.

They need some good PR agent!

Whoops!

You have ago at my spelling. Have you got the shakes, posting everything twice.

You beat me to it

Looks like Fred's been hacking Dave Cameron's mobile . . . often wondered how he knew what's going on in No 10.

You are slowing up.

He Would not know where to start.

Interesting to watch.

I think Cameron would like to say yes to the SKY B take over to Murdock, but if the Cameron government says yes then the "free" press, Media and the electorate, will lynch him.

If he says NO, then the "Murdock2 press will scalp Cameron over the period he hangs on as PM. (Clegg for PM. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH)

Interesting, now that the News of the World is closing, I can see some defensive revelations coming from the employees.

Fascinating, could be the basis for a computer game or "board" game called "Decision Making".

When one plans deception, get it right!

Fred
As you are so keen on picking people up on their spelling, it is Murdoch and NOT Murdock!

I think he will still take over the company that is spelt BSKYB and NOT SKY B.

His other newspapers such as The Times don't have any problems. And it was not Murdoch that was hacking. Hacking does seem somewhat of an extreme description of what took place. Someone just played back some voicemail messages. The only ones that are at all serious are the ones relating to what were ongoing crime investigations.

Various celebreties have each had 100,000 or so in damages for the hacking. I wonder if the 'NOW' will compensate all the other ordinary people. I doubt it.

What are you smoking Fred.

Can you not spell Murdoch. Has the drink taken its toll?

Murdoch reminds me of the boxer, doesn't know when to quit, So keep it going Rupe.. keep it going.

Hays,

I don't think I have picked up anybody's spelling, being dyslexic myself.

Perhaps, you are showing signs of increasing confusion,

If I am wrong, show me more than one instance of me doing so.

Various celebreties have each had 100,000 or so in damages for the hacking.

Some mistakes.

Murdock will do for me.

But dogs are only as good as their masters.

I doubt that Murdock has a chance in hell of taking over B.BSKYB or B Sky B.

But listening to James Muddydoch (on TV at the moment), I think the he, other owners and executives are digging their own grave deeper and deeper.

The sad thing is that the Times, when I was a school boy and student, was a paper which was respected by the majority of people. (Even if they had other interpretations of the "facts" given.)

It does not seem to be now.
