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.

Pady: How do they know?

Tyketto,no

Not up with cooperate or company law.

Can some of the worldly wise help?

On the supposition that :-

1) It is proved that News of the World has been phone hacking
2) That executives are found prosecuted and found guilty
3) That there are many individuals will attempt to sue the News of the World for compensation of their privacy
4) The number of claimants is said to be colossal
5) Clifford is said to have said to have settled his claim on News of the World for close to 1,000.000

====
1) If the company is no longer trading and gone into administration does the subsidiary company have limited liability?
2) Is the News Corporation liable for the legal expenses and damages?
3) If so, and guessing, what will be the total costs of all the civil, criminal liabilities?
===============

It will be interesting to watch the future ducking and weaving regarding any involvement or prior knowledge of the participants, starting with No 10, the Police, other executives and the Murdochs.

I take responsibility for my actions, but it was not me Gov, it was somebody else who led me astray.

(Action man, himself.)

It is amazing the reluctance of Cameron to enquire more deeply into the functioning of Coulson, or into the proprietary of the News Corporation in their attempts to buy BSkyB.

PS.

There is a joke thread somewhere, but I can see the similarities when Cameron is on the TV stage/box.

Maybe he has a heavy cold?" Me dose is full of dnot" poor lamb!!

It is interesting that the Labour Government knew in 2006 that there was a phone hacking problem, but chose not to do anything about it for fear of upsetting Murdoch.

The current Millipead hypocrasy is quite entertaining.

Nothing is ever done in this country till the sh-t hits the fan as they say.

One can blame one's parents for their help in one's development of aberrant behaviour, but when one "comes of age" the responsibility for one's own actions and behaviour is one's own.

Cameron is trying to say "we" and "others" were too "trusting" is "escapism" near its "best or extreme".


He is attempting deny and dodge the responsibility of his actions by dissipating it amongst others.


The "blame" game is wearing thin, and Cameron's choice of "friends", is to say the least questionable.

Might see some tornadoes with the weather conditions as they are...hot and cold....

Fred, Dc has about 4 years left in power. Thank god. Will you winge at his
successor.

4 more years of wingeing :-(

skinny, I do not know if I can take this. Fred is going to send us to the nut house

Let me out, let me out, lol

With Cameron's continuing U-turns, indecision and general balls ups, I doubt that Cameron will last that long as leader of the tories.

His PR is wearing thin.


Even the "old etonians" will dump him.

Help! help!

I fear it is too late for that.

I am going to put it foreward 10 fine for dc word .

Interesting article from Reuters.

This might help you form an opinion of your government's economic policy:

Probably make you more miserable.



(Reuters) - The construction industry struggled to grow in May, adding to signs that the economy was stagnant in the second quarter, while high factory-gate inflation pointed to further price increases for consumers.


Weak growth, coupled with soaring prices, poses a deep dilemma for the Bank of England, which has opted to keep interest rates at record lows. It also undermines the government's efforts to slash a record budget deficit.

Data from the Office for National Statistics on Friday showed that non-seasonally adjusted construction grew by just 0.4 percent in May after a hefty 12.4 percent drop in April caused by disruption due to the royal wedding that month.

At the same time, annual factory gate inflation rose to 5.7 percent in June, its highest since October 2008, and soaring input prices for food and oil signalled further pressures were in the pipeline.

We are doomed.

All doomed.

Jesus. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
