The comments are a mixed bag. Some good ones uprated, some good ones downrated.

You could almost buy a chief constable for that.

I wondered when they'd try the Waste Of Money tactic, in fact I'm suprised it took them this long.

Indeed.

I reckon they're doing it because Dacre and his minions are yellowing the floor.

The cost of the Leveson inquiry £2m, the cost of employing Richard Littlejohn for a year £1m, the cost of libel damages to Kevin Keegan £150,000. The look on Dacre's at the Levenson inquiry priceless.

Interesting that the five comments are all red arrowed. It's moderated so I wonder if they're just letting anti-sleb ones through?

Sorry DM, they're not buying into your angle on this one.

The principle that the polluter pays doesn't (apparently) apply to publishing bullshit.

Presumably the 43 year old woman arrested in Oxfordshire has got red hair and enjoys horse riding!

Quote:
Rebekah Brooks and her racehorse trainer husband Charlie are among six people arrested by police investigating phone hacking, according to Sky sources.

Police said five men and one woman were detained on suspicion of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.

The co-ordinated arrests were made by officers from Operation Weeting, the Metropolitan Police investigation into illegal hacking of voicemail messages.

Wonderful fan-fiction already on Twitter:

Quote:
Rebekah's crimson ringlets bobbed angrily as D.I. Slanket slapped the cuffs on her. "You can't do this to me," she cried, "I'm winsome!" Rebekah would not be taken in like this, like some common criminal. She threw her head back and whistled for all she was worth. From the field adjoining her delightful thatched cottage came a response, and a familiar figure bounded over the gate. Raisa! "But, you're dead!" spluttered D.I. Slanket. Raisa whinnied and kicked him to the ground, then unlocked Rebekah's handcuffs with his teeth. "Oh Raisa!" Rebekah cooed. She looked down at Slanket. "Have you never heard of a horse faking its own death?" she said contemptuously. Rebekah mounted Raisa passionately, her cochineal tresses blowing in the wind as they rode off into the sunrise, and to freedom!

At least that fanfiction didn't have her falling in love and... um... other stuff with the horse.
