[Margaret Pilkington]

Margaret, do you mean the furore about the phone hacking, or my little aphorism?

I think the newspapers being full of this news is diversionary propaganda.
Yes, it is a scandal, but all the investigations in the world aren't going to get to the bottom of the muck pit....because too many PPPs are involved(police, press and politicians).

David Cameron is now saying that if Coulson can be proved to have known about the hacking, then he(David Cameron) will issue a profound apology.
What is the difference between an apology and a profound apology?
Neither of them changes anything one iota.

David Cameron employed Coulson because he knew all the tricks that the media get up to...and it should have been plain enough that if he knew about all these dirty tricks, then he had to have been involved in some of them. In itslef that should have set alarm bells ringing for DC...the fact that it didn't, proves his judgement to be critically flawed.
