It would be interesting to see if there's any old news reports of public figures being mysteriously burgled, or having their phones and laptops stolen.

Liam Fox MP

David Davies MP

and that's 30 seconds of googling, there'll be loads more

Wasn't there a spate of burglaries against footballers while they were playing away (in Europe, not shagging someone who isn't their misses)? These were blamed on a sophisticated gang and from what I understand never solved.

I might blog about these past burglaries if I can clear my schedule, so keep em coming.

Helen Liddell MP

BURGLARS HAVE struck at the home of Helen Liddell, the Deputy Secretary of State for Scotland. A handbag containing two mobile phones and confidential contact books is believed to have been stolen.

George Galloway MP

Even if 8/10 were organised gangs, and the other 1/10 a lucky chancer, then there's still that doubt there, especially with how big the reward for a scoop on a footballer like Gerrard/Rooney would be for a tabloid.

There was definitely collusion between the two, the Daily Post had The Sun bannerhead on their frontpage when they broke the story.

In the words of Dark Helmet: Absolutely nothing.

Does anyone seriously believe that anything is going to happen to Rupert Murdoch?

Remember when this story first broke and everybody said 'nothing would happen' and from it there's a move towards greater press regulation, Paul Dacre making GBS threads himself, Rupert Murdoch confined to a racist twitter account and the News of the World got shut down?

You're going to have, in the next two days, an actual 'NewsCorp bribed US Official to commit War Crime' story with FOX and friends already infighting and breaking apart over the election defeat.

If it's not backed by force of law it will be useless, because the papers can just refuse to sign up to it like Richard Desmond.

Which I hope Leveson has underlined in big, bold letters so it can't be ignored/misconstrued.

No, If anything it is closer to the current model of self-regulation, but with less direct influence from the press themselves. This is combined with a threat that if they don't play ball (Like Richard Desmond pulling his papers out of the PCC) then there will be a 'backstop' of regulation through an independent body like OFCOM.

Underwriting the Independent Regulator with OFCOM is a nice way of having the statutory intervention available, but the likes of the Mail and Star are still going to be crying over it as Stalinist because it fucks over their quite cosy routine of publishing absolute shite.

Any bets on how many pages it gets in tomorrows Mail? RIP FREE PRESS and 9 pages I reckon.

What's up with the poppies?

Remembrance Day is coming, and like Christmas, Easter and Halloween it creeps earlier and earlier into shops and on TV.

I still don't understand how that's even libel, she didn't actually say anything about McAlpine at all. Or is just asking whether someone's a paedophile libelous?

Judges aren't thick, and nudge nudge wink wink libel is still libel.

She decided to play at being a policewoman and traded child porn with him to try and snare him.

Note that he's being sentenced under the guidelines of the 1970's, and the judge would have given him a longer sentence if one were available.

It's ridiculous that judges have to sentence based on those given at the time of the offence.

It's horrible in this instance, but legally the logic is sound.

I'm curious - have any countries, like, say, America or France, had similarly large and high-profile abuse scandals that we've learned about in a similar amount of detail?

Not yet.

The closest analogue I can think of is the Pitcairn Island trial, where it was endemic, systemic and had become normalised, and even that was an island of less than 60 people.

This is sensible when you think about it. Why should lying about something that doesn't matter - whether it's phone hacking, your favourite colour or cheating on your wife - give rise to criminal liability?

Because you're under oath.
