All very civilized and polite and well mannered and pointless so far; sleek, pink, Etonian not challenged - quite rightly as the real problems have been avoided like mad by the Inquiry, which is obeying the media schedule of celebrities (being chased by photographers) - police (what nice and honourable people) and politicians (did you ever meet Murdoch? Who cares?).
Meet a Mafioso Godfather socially and, "Hey what a smooth gent !"
Meanwhile, 60-year Jubilee of NewZac Corp Media Mob-Rule Rupe's Prurience & Ignorance Inc PLC established 4 October 1952, on the death of Sir Keith Murdoch.
Since the fraud-market 1980s the UNelected Alien Rupert Murdoch IS UK Media Mafia Monarch.
And in 1995 he made 'New Lab'/NeoTory/Puppets Blair & Brown an offer they couldn't refuse, "Stay right-of-centre and stay IN for a while. Revert to left-of-centre and you're OUT - for another 2-decades !"
To misquote ("Some Chicken, Some Neck") True Brit WW2 winner Winnie, " Some democracy, much hypocrisy. "
Cameron grilled (!?) on Brooks - now being grilled (??!) on Coulson - all of which is fine and good fun if it leads to further arrests, resignations, jail terms... but it has very little to do with the true problem.
"It is possible that he [Cameron] really doesn't get it, that he doesn't understand that one measure of an advanced political system is appreciating that the appearance of a conflict of interest is as damaging as an actual conflict: both real and perceived conflicts undermine trust in the same way. Instead, he seems to take the more atavistic view that when Rebekah Brooks says they are "in this together", what she means is that they have some social mind-meld bond. This isn't quid pro quo; it's a shared identity, a deeper understanding, a mutual respect.
Of course, the best kind of quid pro quo is one in which there is no need for a quid pro quo. That's the way the mafia or the Russian oligarchs do it."
He's a classic bore and the British should be ashamed of themselves for electing such a middle of the road non entity.
He's neither awful or loveable.
He's a sure sign that the UK has become just a giant High Street conglomeration of nothingness. He's why you see everyone and their mother wearing track suits.
