        Let's just hope the Competition committee has got balls and is not influenced by the men in Grey suits or MSM like Sun, Times etc

        To make merger look like a "Due Diligence" process when Murdoch is given his prize. Competition Authority back-hander happening about NOW.

        'Minded' meaning what? 'Unless there's something in it for me' or 'we're looking at this in a dispassionate way for the public good'. Hmmm

        No its Civil Service speak for 'will'. So unless there is an outpouring of national "really you must be kidding" it will happen.

        Let's hope you're right. I was simply proposing an alternative where the secretary happened to coincidentally land a cushy column
