And Cameron at PMQ's yesterday was an embarrassment. A legacy of the Thatcher/News International era I wonder?
Ah yes, David Cameron. The man who stopped Ms Wade (as was) from getting sacked by Murdoch the last time the S.H.T.F. Shame we don't know any local Tory politicians who might like to comment on DC's support of this 'woman'.
If I commented every time a politician (labour, tory or lib dem) did something that surprised me I would have no time for anything else. I suppose all any of us can do is hold our own views, try to do the right thing in our own decisions and express views as openly as we can.
And my view? There's a golden rule in newspapers that Editors are responsible for their newspapers - morally, legally and financially. I thought I wouldn't hear anything worse than hacking into the phone of a missing girl and deleting messages that may have helped the police but then came the revelations that they had hacked relatives of fallen soldiers and victims of 7/7 . Despicable, disgusting and probably as low as you can get. She took the cash and the plaudits for editing the paper and she's responsible. She should go, or be sacked.
My guess is that her career is the last of her worries though. Wouldn't be too surprised if she were helping the boys with their enquiries sometime soon.
