I like this story, free beer for tsunami victims!

News of the World - scum of the highest order.

It's bad enough hacking into Milly Dowler's phone, but its beyond the pale to delete messages.

Un-f**king-believable.

How this goes unpunished in a modern democracy is totally beyond me.

I think what's really telling about all this is none of the tabloids featuring the story on their front pages today.

I watched C4 news in complete and utter disbelief last night.

Something interesting to note. Bellfield killed two more women after Milly Dowler. If the hacking interfered enough to prevent his capture, then it also enabled him to kill again. Twice.

f**king disgraceful.

I hope that a block is put on the sale of Sky whilst this is looked into.

Turns out they also hacked the 7/7 families too.

I remember watching a debate with John Prescott & a guy from News Of The World and the excuse they used was because celebs & politicians are high profile by their own choice they can't complain when stuff like this happens.

Yeah but the police only told the 7/7 families about this last night, see Robert Peston's latest blog:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-14045715

Some interesting stuff in there.

[eFestivals]

I hope that a block is put on the sale of Sky whilst this is looked into.

I caught a little of the commons debate earlier and the Shadow Justice Minister (I forget his name) urged the govt to block the sale until all the issues around the hacking have been worked thru. It'll be interesting to see how the tories respond to that idea - we've got a week at most until we'll find out.

But previously their view was that nothing about the hacking was of any relevance to the sale of Sky, which of course has nothing at all to do with Dave Moron's bessie mates being the two people right at the heart of the hacking, or the fact that Dave Moron had Rupert round to Downing Street before he'd even appointed his cabinet, despite having banged on about how the country was in a state and needed fixing immediately.

Families of dead soldiers also phone-hacked:
