    Rebekah Brooks arrested

    It's the story that keeps on giving

    MSM seem to be staying very quiet about Michael Gove though. Presumably there's nothing untoward about the £5000/month he was receiving from News International.

      Presumably once Rebekah rolls over and gives him up

      Interesting piece from Reuters: Special Report: Inside Rebekah Brooks' News of the World - "No newspaper editor would not know what a 102,000 pound budget was used for. They knew about every 50 quid," said the long-term freelancer.

        Probably as soon as they state she is getting a custodial sentence.

          That's no worse than the £20,000/ month Boris Johnson gets for his column in the Telegraph.

            Johnson obviously has better connections than Grove.

                So will this get her out of appearing in front of the Sport,Media and Culture (!) committee?

                  About the time he became mayor, he also used to write the motoring column for GQ.

                  A snip at £200k for a column which was very loosely based on its subject matter.

                  So who replaced him? Piers Morgans wife, Celia Walden, who is just as useless.

                    A new meaning of the phrase "protective custody“?
