A Tonight on Newsnight Scotland, the News of the World scandal lands | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
with a resounding thud in the midst of Scotland's justice system. The | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
Crown Office orders a review into the Tommy Sheridan trial. But in | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
the light of some of the allegations made today, should it | :00:22. | :00:30. | |
order a much wider investigation? And what effect will the demise of | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
the New Of The World have on Scotland's already troubles | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
newspaper market? And days before the Philips Review | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
is published into the fatal Chinook Helicopter crash, we have an | :00:40. | :00:50. | |
:00:50. | :00:52. | ||
exclusive film about the Good evening. Prosecutors have | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
asked Strathclyde police to investigate witness statements from | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
the Tommy Sheridan perjury trial, after fresh allegations in the News | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
Of The World hacking scandal. Three journalists associated with the | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
paper gave evidence at the trial, including its former editor Andy | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
Coulson. Mr Sheridan's lawyer and a senior MP have presented a list of | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
names to police of people they claim had their phones hacked. Our | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
political correspondent Raymond Buchanan has been following the | :01:10. | :01:19. | |
story. Please be aware, this report contains some flash photography. | :01:19. | :01:26. | |
Remember this? Tommy Sheridan framed in a perjury trial. I have | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
fought the power of News International all my political life | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
and I make no apologies for taking on the might of Rupert Murdoch. | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
Amongst those questioned by Tommy Sheridan in the witness box was the | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
former editor of the UK edition of the News Of The World. Andy Coulson | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
was asked five the former MSP, did the news of the world pay corrupt | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
police officers? But to my knowledge, was the answer. It is | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
now being suggested that he did authorise payments. The editor of | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
the Scottish edition claimed in court in else about the case had | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
been lost. It is now being reported that they could have been made | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
available after all. The former Scottish news editor Douglas Whyte | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
also told the court he was and a practitioner of the so-called dark | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
arts. Telephone-tapping. Today, prosecutors asked detectives a | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
Strathclyde to examine the evidence given by a certain witnesses in | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
this perjury trial. It follows the scandal surrounding the News Of The | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
World in recent days. Police have been asked to come up with a | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
preliminary assessment but this is not a criminal inquiry. That | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
decision was taken before the News Of The World was axed. It was after | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
the latest damning allegation. It suggested the tabloid had hacked | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
into the voice mails of relatives of dead servicemen. A it is | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
disgraceful, shocking. How low can someone actually go to do that to a | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
family member who has lost someone? It and think they could scoop any | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
lower. They are the lowest of the lowest. You have five new | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
messages... The phone hacking scandal has been dominated by | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
revelations from south of the border but today another question | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
may have found an answer. A dossier prepared by Tommy Sheridan's lawyer | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
was handed to police. It contained evidence given by their editors and | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
also a list of scores of potential Scottish hacking victims. Nine | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
months ago, we were provided with an and redacted dossier of private | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
information access by News Of The World, of individuals such as | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
football players, heart surgeons, so stars, athletes, TV stars, TV | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
chefs, Olympic athletes, their spouses, the Lord Mayor's and even | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
a murder victim. We will reveal more of this trade in the week... | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
Yesterday, Tom Watson suggested Tommy Sheridan's perjury conviction | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
was unsound. The jury were not in full possession of the facts of the | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
case and therefore, I believe that the decision they made his unsound | :04:00. | :04:07. | |
and Tommy Sheridan may be an innocent man. During the course of | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
a long a three-month trial, dozens of witnesses were summoned to the | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
High Court in Glasgow. Not all of them worked for the News Of The | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
World. Tommy Sheridan's defence was there is a grand conspiracy against | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
him. All of them, he insisted, were out to do him in. But there were | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
other witnesses who were independent had told the jury they | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
believed Tommy Sheridan was a liar. Something, in their verdict, the | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
jury agreed with when he was convicted of perjury in December of | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
last year. But his team were celebrating the demise of the News | :04:44. | :04:51. | |
Of The World, a pig which pursued the former MSP relentlessly. -- the | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
newspaper pursued. A what I want to see is a root-and-branch | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
investigation into every journalist that worked on that paper. A the | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
Guardian are reporting that Andy Coulson will be arrested tomorrow. | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
If that happens, it will be by officers from the Metropolitan | :05:05. | :05:15. | |
:05:15. | :05:17. | ||
Police. Any Scottish investigation is still in its infancy. I'm joined | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
in our Edinburgh studio by Ken Macdonald, the man in Scotland in | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
charge of The Information Commissioner's Office which | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
oversees data protection. Some of the allegations being made | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
today, it is not your concern, the allegations about perjury in the | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
Tommy Sheridan trial, but these allegations that scores of people | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
in Scotland were targeted by phone hacking practices, that is in your | :05:40. | :05:50. | |
:05:50. | :05:55. | ||
I am sorry, we seem to not be able to hear you. Try again. We'll come | :05:55. | :06:05. | |
:06:05. | :06:09. | ||
back to you. I am joined now by Steven Raeburn, | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
the Editor of the Legal Magazine The Firm and the former managing | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
director of news international for Scotland and Ireland, Colin | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
McClatchie. What are you tried it out of this? What they were looking | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
for is to have a successful appeal of his conviction for perjury. The | :06:23. | :06:29. | |
chances of getting a successful appeal statistically are about 20-1. | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
Only about 5% of those cases are actually successful. What they will | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
be tried wanted to the Appeal Court is that the information which has | :06:38. | :06:44. | |
come out since, beginning with the Milly Dowler case, and the light | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
that that may cast on the perjury trial, they will try as one do that | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
that may have influenced the ultimate verdict of the jury. If | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
that was the case, could the jury have perhaps reached a different | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
decision? That being the case, an appeal could be granted. Sheridan | :07:01. | :07:09. | |
could be released. The other side of this is should there be... Well, | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
there are allegations of perjury against Andy Coulson. That would | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
not necessarily mean that the Sheridan conviction was unsafe, | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
would it? Absolutely. The testimony of course and was only one aspect | :07:23. | :07:33. | |
:07:33. | :07:37. | ||
of the entire case. -- Andy Coulson. There was more to the case than | :07:37. | :07:43. | |
that. Perjury charges do not often follow either civil cases, what | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
happened in the case of Tommy Sheridan, who had successfully sued | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
for defamation and was arising from that, perjury trials are not common | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
in Scotland at all. You would need to have a justifiable public | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
interest to bring one. Although, as we have seen this week, the level | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
of public interest in this case over all and all of its ever- | :08:08. | :08:17. | |
expanding testicles, -- tentacles,... I've got to speak to | :08:17. | :08:25. | |
you in a minute. I can get Ken McDonald back. We are doing better | :08:25. | :08:34. | |
now. Scores of people is God and they have been subjected to a legal | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
phone hacking and this takes things into your court, doesn't it? That | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
is right. We are interested in how the numbers are so many people were | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
given to the journalists who were hacking into the phones. This | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
reflects a research project we did in 2005 which we have presented to | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
the Westminster Parliament, what price privacy, what we exposed the | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
trade in personal information and put pressure on Parliament to | :09:03. | :09:09. | |
increase the penalties available to the courts in any prosecutions. | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
Presumably, from what you are saying, which you agree that | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
someone, whether it be Strathclyde police or another agency, ought to | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
be able to have a wider investigation than the narrow remit | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
the Crown Office has asked Strathclyde police to let out | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
today? Evenley been asked to wit -- review witness statements in | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
Sheridan trial, which does not get us to the things we are talking | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
about. There may well be some fall- out from the investigations | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
Strathclyde's pleads -- Strathclyde police are doing. Clearly, there is | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
a master of public interest in the story and the effect that it is | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
haven't on the society as a whole. We have seen these stories today | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
about the relatives of soldiers killed in war, murder victims at a | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
tree. The distress it is causing them. There are various aspects to | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
this which we have serious concerns about Foster was a not clear about | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
is if it turns out to be the case that there are people in Scotland | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
to have been the victims of this, they are not going to be | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
investigated by Strathclyde police reviewing the evidence and the | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
Tommy Sheridan trial. That's a different issue. You think not only | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
that these things should be investigated but that actually | :10:29. | :10:35. | |
there should be some exemplary jail sentences for people responsible | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
for this. But presumably the London police investigation does not cover | :10:39. | :10:45. | |
people in Scotland were the victims of this. What I want to know from | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
you have the information commissioner here is whether you | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
believe that these potential victims, their cases are being | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
investigated and if not who she you think should be investigating them? | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
In cases such as this were there is an overlap between our investigator | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
its powers and the Crown Office in Scotland, we would normally revert | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
to the Crown Office and the Scottish authorities to take | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
forward any investigation and prosecution. There have been, in | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
the recent past, a number of what we call section 55 offences that | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
have been prosecuted in the Scottish court. There was one India | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
this year in Tayside were a police officer and had passed on | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
information she had obtained from the police national computer. She | :11:29. | :11:35. | |
was tried and found guilty but was actually sentenced to it here of | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
imprisonment because she was found guilty of attempting to pervert the | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
course of justice. It is the small corner consequences we have to | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
consider. So you would agree that there should be some sort of | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
investigation into some of these claims? I think we will have to | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
wait and see what the outcome of the Strathclyde investigation is. | :11:52. | :12:00. | |
Hang on, and sorry to repeat myself but, the allegations include scores | :12:00. | :12:07. | |
of people in Scotland may be being victims of for an Hacking's. But as | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
it is do with a Tommy Sheridan case and there for a review of witness | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
statements in the Sheraton case, one that may Melby desirable, is | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
irrelevant to this broader issue. And asking you to tell us that she | :12:19. | :12:26. | |
would like to see these broader allegations investigated. We will | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
work with the of the authorities in Scotland to from it the best | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
solution to this. We have to look at it, whilst you are questioning | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
the Scottish issue, data protection is a UK Reserve matter and I think | :12:40. | :12:50. | |
:12:50. | :12:51. | ||
they will probably have to take it Your offers has the power to | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
initiate prosecutions? We have the power, out with Scotland, in | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
Scotland it is the Crown Office and the Procurator Fiscal who are the | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
sole public prosecutors. So, your man in London can say, right, does | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
he have to go to the CPS to get them to bring forward a | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
prosecution? We do it in conjunction with the police and we | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
take forward prosecutions ourselves in these jurisdictions. In Scotland, | :13:21. | :13:29. | |
what we tend to do is leave it to local police forces in Scotland to | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
investigate and report to the fiscal, but we have on occasion | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
gone to the procurator fiscal ourselves. So you do not have any | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
active role in Scotland at all? You are not going to initiate any | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
inquiries, you are not calling specifically for the Crown Office | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
to investigate these allegations and you do not have any power to | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
initiate prosecutions? We do not have power to initiate prosecutions | :13:58. | :14:06. | |
in Scotland. But the statements you are making about the number of | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
Scots and others alleged to have had their numbers obtained and | :14:11. | :14:18. | |
phones possibly hat, we should look at this in the wider scope of it | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
being a wider, UK regulatory authority, because this issue is | :14:22. | :14:30. | |
being pursued, UK-white. I don't understand what it means for you to | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
see you looking at it in the UK Wade context. Are you going to ask | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
the Information Commissioner in London to ask that the Crown Office | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
in Scotland investigates these things? We take these things for | :14:42. | :14:48. | |
work as the UK regulatory authority. We will, on occasion, approach the | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
procurator fiscal in Scotland because we do not have powers to | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
prosecute. Thank you very much for joining us. Back on this legal | :14:59. | :15:08. | |
issue, will this go any further? We are still not quite clear if anyone | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
at the moment has any responsibility for investigating | :15:12. | :15:20. | |
these wider allegations from Aamer Anwar, but if there is anything in | :15:20. | :15:27. | |
them...? The role of the Crown Office is crucial. They are the | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
prosecuting authority in Scotland. If anyone discharged it is up to | :15:31. | :15:41. | |
:15:41. | :15:41. | ||
them to initiate that. -- anyone is charged. In relation to this | :15:41. | :15:46. | |
Sheridan case, the role of the Crown Office was questioned by Ian | :15:46. | :15:53. | |
Hamilton QC. Their role today was fascinating because they announced | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
they would ask Strathclyde police to look at some of this, but only | :15:58. | :16:07. | |
one day after Aamer Anwar announced he was having this press conference. | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
What would have to happen is the crown of us would have to identify | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
where these alleged victims are, contact police forces in those | :16:15. | :16:22. | |
areas, and say, we would ask you to investigate this. Or the police can | :16:22. | :16:29. | |
have this done and refer it back to the Crown Office for charges. | :16:29. | :16:36. | |
slight change of topic - the demise of the News of the world - what | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
impact will this have in Scotland, because we have a newspaper market | :16:39. | :16:46. | |
that is already a rather troubled? This is a market that has declined | :16:46. | :16:52. | |
25% in the last five years. One title going out of the market, the | :16:52. | :16:58. | |
crucial thing will be, what does News International put in its | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
place? There is speculation that there will be a 7th edition of the | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
Sun, called the Sun on Sunday, they cannot caught the sun the sun | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
because there is already one title called that, in Newcastle. -- the | :17:13. | :17:19. | |
Sunday Sun. This is just to defend people like James Murdoch and | :17:19. | :17:29. | |
:17:29. | :17:32. | ||
Rebekah Wade, then, the News of the World been closed down? The News of | :17:32. | :17:38. | |
the World has huge overheads, it has a quarter of the journalists | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
that the Sun has for one day a week, its sales are declining, so there | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
were big problems with it, so the issue that News International had | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
been looking at is to say, is it a more cost-effective alternative, | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
and that might be to scrap the News of the World, and produce the Sun, | :17:56. | :18:04. | |
seven days. It is a point people have been making about the sun in | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
England that applies to the Scottish Sun, marvellous people | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
though it may be, people are saying that you cannot mistake what is a | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
successful week a newspaper, and give it a Sunday batch, because the | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
history of doing that is not that success will. People who bought the | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
News of the World would not necessarily by up the sun on Sunday. | :18:28. | :18:37. | |
The Sunday Herald, neither of those titles emulated the levels of sales | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
of the daily papers. But in it a declining market with an | :18:42. | :18:49. | |
unprofitable newspaper, the second thing that happened this week was | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
the News of the World's reputation which has been shredded in a very | :18:52. | :19:00. | |
short period of time. I have no doubt that the background of its | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
lack of profitability would have been a factor in deciding to close | :19:04. | :19:14. | |
:19:14. | :19:14. | ||
it. Isn't that bigger factor ultimately that, newspapers, | :19:14. | :19:23. | |
including in America, the Wall Street Journal, it is less than 15% | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
of NewsCorp. The bigger picture, is there much, much bigger holdings in | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
television, including Sky, from the Murdoch empire point of view, | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
perhaps sacrificing the News of the world, sad though it is for the | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
people working there who did not have anything to do with this, but | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
from that point of view of the Murdoch family is it really that | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
important? It is an issue for them in this country right now. I would | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
guess that the course of action they have taken, not the most | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
popular course of action, but nevertheless, the background of a | :20:03. | :20:10. | |
lack of profitability, there is an inevitability to it. We have to | :20:10. | :20:17. | |
leave it there. Thank you both very much indeed. There's an expectation | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
that next week will bring the Lord Philip review of the fatal Chinook | :20:21. | :20:27. | |
helicopter crash on the Mull of Kintyre in 1994. It's thought it | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
may contradict earlier inquiries which blamed the pilots for the | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
accident, which killed 29 people. At the same time campaigners are | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
still pursuing the case of the Nimrod which came down in | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
Afghanistan in 2006, although the fleet has been grounded. They are | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
the latest examples of bereaved families taking on the MoD. Derek | :20:42. | :20:50. | |
Bateman reports. They were two of the worst fatal accidents in modern | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
military history. A Chinook helicopter carrying 29 senior | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
intelligence personnel struck ahead land in the Mull of Kintyre and | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
pledged to the ground. It was 1994. And a number a reconnaissance | :21:03. | :21:08. | |
flight crashed in flames in Afghanistan into doesn't done six, | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
whilst refuelling, killing 14 people. The Chinook inquiry blamed | :21:12. | :21:19. | |
the dead pilots for gross negligence as controversy raged | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
amongst their families and the campaigners who pointed to dubious | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
safety records and controls and electronic maintenance. We do, a | :21:28. | :21:35. | |
failure of leadership and parodies in the UK in mode de were blame for | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
the number of catastrophe and the Government apologised. In pursuit | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
of financial savings, the MoD and the RAF allowed their focus on | :21:45. | :21:51. | |
safety to suffer. The result was that no Nimrod aircraft is flying, | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
and Kinloss year base has been closed with the loss of 2,000 jobs. | :21:55. | :22:05. | |

The board of inquiry into the MoD was followed by an inquiry. That it | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
was lost was because of a systemic breach of the military covenant | :22:12. | :22:18. | |
brought about by significant failings on the part of the MoD, | :22:18. | :22:28. | |
:22:28. | :22:29. | ||
British Aerospace Systems and Qinetiq. Was there a systematic -- | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
was there a systematic failure to take heed of safety problems you | :22:32. | :22:37. | |
before the catastrophe? Former aircraft engineer who worked on the | :22:37. | :22:43. | |
Nimrod and who advises the breed families, thinks so. The problem I | :22:43. | :22:49. | |
have is that this only goes back as far as 1998 when this report was | :22:49. | :22:57. | |
published on the Nimrod and that is like a starting point, and the | :22:57. | :23:03. | |
report writer says that air worthiness deteriorated from that | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
point onwards. Now that is not true when you compare what he said that | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
with it the number report and the tunic report, these are very | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
similar, there are calls are the same. And yet it appears that no | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
one took action. He is convinced that the danger signs lie in the | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
official reports on board aircraft. Although they are two separate | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
accidents, the root cause is the same, and that is what I am saying | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
is this systemic failings of the air worthiness added is revealing | :23:37. | :23:43. | |
of the culture in the mid- 90s. That is not just his expertise as | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
an engineer but Mr Jones will lies on. He is basing his concerns on | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
the limited known context of the Nimrod air worthiness report. | :23:53. | :24:00. | |
have asked for a copy of this Nimrod air worthiness report | :24:00. | :24:02. | |
through freedom of information it. The MoD has come back and said that | :24:02. | :24:08. | |
we cannot find it. I have asked for an internal review and they might | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
have done that and still cannot find it, which I find incredible. | :24:11. | :24:16. | |
Here is the report that was used as the starting-point back for the | :24:16. | :24:24. | |
declining airworthiness, and we cannot find this report. Next week | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
we expect a new inquiry, chaired by Lord Taylor, to be published, | :24:29. | :24:34. | |
possibly to vindicate the Chinook pilots, leading to the | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
airworthiness of the helicopter again being questioned. That would | :24:37. | :24:44. | |
turn attention on this safety regime surrounding done and rot. As | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
a streamlined management system is introduced into their ministry it | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
should herald a more open approach. These latest doubts about safety | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
and cover ups will be a reminder to many that the old civil service | :24:59. | :25:08. | |
culture is still alive in Whitehall. Tomorrow's front pages, all talking | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
about a News of the World. The paper that died of shame, says the | :25:13. | :25:21. | |
Daily Record. The Times says hacked to death. After one and a than 60 | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
years, the News of the world shut down. The Daily Telegraph, another | :25:25. | :25:34. | |
good one, goodbye cruel World. Britain's biggest newspaper is | :25:34. | :25:41. | |
closed down. And it says that Andy Coulson will be arrested today. The | :25:41. | :25:46. |
