Tories call for new media inquiry that has recommendations they agree with
http://newsthump.com/2012/11/30/tories-call-for-new-media-inquiry-that-has-recommendations-they-agree-with/The Conservative Party have called for a fresh inquiry into the culture, practices and ethics of the British press after the one theyve just spent £6m on didnt reach the conclusion they wanted.
Speaking in the Commons, Prime Minister David Cameron opposed the recommendations of the Leveson inquiry on the grounds that they were different to what he had in mind.
Dont get me wrong, I think its a brilliant report, he said. Its got loads of really good words in it and its impressively heavy. But what it fundamentally lacks are the recommendations that I want.
