    McMullan is rather proud of hacking .... the low life targets deserve it in his book [at least J Prescott]

As the ends of such a partnership cannot be obtained in many generations, it becomes a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born.”

    Mr McMullan could do with restricting himself to answering the questions he's being asked, rather than rambling off in a self-incriminating tangent.
    I wonder if he's forgotten he's speaking under oath.

    he's landed Brooks & Coulson in it, whether he realises or not.

    Just having a quick peek now, he seems a particularly obnoxious (pauses to think of correct word without getting into trouble) person

    not a toff though ..... he uses street logic ...

    And again, and now Piers Morgan I think. How odd, he seems so proud of what he's done, it's all such a joke to him isn't it?

    In my opinion (defence of fair comment) he exemplifies journalistic low-life.

    Well, that may be your opinion. I shall have to take Learned Counsel's Opinion on this. Bear with me.

    Oh, yes, you are correct. He is the most (and possibly also very dull and stupid) obnoxious tosser so far of journalists interviewed in the Leveson Enquiry. It all does seem a bit Boys Own to him (as to him being a rent boy, well ..... a bit of rough is OK, but there is rough and no thank you) Oh, and he keeps on digging ....... Does he know what he's saying? Who is is lawyer representing him? He must be hanging head in hands.
