Evidence suggests an elaborate cover-up. The Met must actFormer UK prime minister makes criminal complaint against Rupert Murdoch’s media empire The groundbreaking apology to Prince Harry from Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers (NGN) has not closed an era of investigation and litigation into media corruption.

It is informed by recently available evidence, and by the statements of senior officers involved in the original investigations into unlawful newsgathering, who have now stated to me that they were misled.Gordon Brown was UK prime minister 2007 to 2010Do you have an opinion on the ...

Party eyes dramatic spending cuts to turn president’s promises into reality – but not all lawmakers are on boardDonald Trump has made a simple request of Congress’s Republican leaders: deliver “one big, beautiful bill” that will turn his campaign promises into reality. By all indications, there will be little beautiful about the negotiations to come when Congress returns to session on Monday.The bill envisioned by the president will extend tax cuts enacted during his first term, fund more border defenses and mass deportations of undocumented immigrants and potentially include the president’s vow to end the taxation of tips, overtime and social security payments.
