Everybody now tells me, things have changed, you don’t have to worry, we can now just get on with the business and not have a second inquiry. But then comes along the Sunday Times, Mr Witherow, the editor, who in fact now we know - the announcement is only quite recent, and court cases are going on - that a man called John Ford was hired to commit criminal acts against individuals, including me and including the prime minister, at that time Gordon Brown. It is quite clear by his statements, his bank accounts, his personal effects, the solicitors were all hacked and intervened in criminal acts by this Mr John Ford who’s made it absolutely clear everywhere he was employed by Mr Witherow. Now, of course you might play around with the word “employed”, but he was paying him for 20 years. He might have been a separate investigator, but he was committing criminal acts, breaching the human rights of everyone involved.
