I'd say it's odds on.. seems the charges relate to evidence like files, e.mails and such going missing at NOTW hq just before the police turned up with a search warrant so no surprise there, but it's doubtful Brooks actualy did this hands on

[Mancie]

Mind you wether or not she's found guilty she can always go back to her old job singing in pubs

[Neil]

Haha I almost lost wee laughing when I just heard on the news that Rebekah Brooks has been cleared of all charges.

[Margaret Pilkington]

well now, isn't that a surprise(NOT)?

She admitted on camera they paid Police for info. Why isn't she being prosecuted for this? Elite connections perhaps? Hmmm

Its all down to who was porking her, they daren't find her guilty. Whereas Coulson has been found guilty, not that much of a shock,Camerons already grovelling n meaning how sorry he is, that hes been found guilty. But the knobheads will interpret his apology different than me.

[Margaret Pilkington]

it definitely isn't what you know...but who you know. (that has influence in high places)

[Margaret Pilkington]

It makes you wonder very seriously about the jsutice systemin the country. It seems like one rule for me an' thee, and another rule for those in high places.

I thought justice was blindfolded.....I think it is time somebody checked that blindfold for moth holes!

The verdicts were returned by a jury Margaret.

[Neil]

Maybe we all listened to her trial by newspaper and didn't see the actual trial by jury.

[Accyexplorer]

Don't worry Andy , i'm sure your mate Dodgey Dave will pull a few strings to get you out early (hopefully not before a few 'shower incidents').
Camerons apologies are about as sincere as the apology over Hillsborough.
Anyone think Coullson will go quietly or will the dirt be coming out?

[cashman]

I'm near certain quietly,cos will be on a promise when the dust settles.

Yes......I know they were. It still doesn't give me any great confidence in the system.
