A vast amount of the revenue received by BSkyB is obtained from homes supposedly on the "breadline" and in receipt of goverment subsistence, in other words our "leaders" in Westminster are supporting Murdoch and his gang keep an interest in this money making racket and if they obtain overall control, watch the charges, already monstrous, escalate even higher.

Doesn't matter, they'll be sacking him sooner or later. BskyB is under referral to the competition commission, it is expected they will ordered to reduce News Corps stake in the company. Also, there is the ongoing inquiry into his testimony, and whether as reports say, he willingly lied to parliament. Now this IS a gaolable offence.

Time for a little revolution in the UK.

Sack your government, take back your country and live free.

You'll be the only ones in England taking responsibility for your lives and your actions.

"he authorized settlements to hacking victims"
Are you paying attention Dave? Wherever it is you are Sun-ning yourself. Because it may be that Jim has something to teach you. If it is possible to buy off prosecution for wrong doing, then why not extend the idea? With no effective police force any more. Why not promote the payment of protection money directly from citizen to criminal, and cut out the middle man? Simple sums indicate that the amount being extracted for ineffectual law enforcement, judiciary maintenance and incarceration, far exceed a tithe. Whose levy would negate the inconvenience, damage repairs, insurance hikes, etcetera, etcetera. Resulting from not investing monies into the only growth industry, lawlessness
