In 2009, John Yates, assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, decided that there was no evidence to re-open an investigation in phone hacking by News International.
John Yates spent an entire day(!) perusing the allegations and decided not to investigate.
A decision he now admits was "pretty crap".
Was his decision making infuenced by the knowledge that his own phone had been hacked by NI ?
He was aware he himself had been a target and yet, said and did nothing.
John Yates, a married man, was having an affair.
Was the UK's chief officer in counter terrorism a victim of blackmail ?
Jail Andy Coulson.
Jail Murdoch.
Jail Rebekah Brooks.
Jail the police officers who took money from Murdoch and News International.
