The Met Police have questions to answer...

Recently, the Chief Whip Andrew Mitchell resigned after an altercation with members of the Metropolitan Police Force at the gates of 10 Downing Street. Irrespective of the rights and wrongs of Mr Mitchell's behaviour, it was a private conversation albeit conducted in public. How did the story end up in The Sun's newsroom? We can be sure that Mr Mitchell did not tell them and he was hardly such a well-known face that a member of the public would have recognised him and told The Sun. The story could only have come from the police.
At 7.15 this morning (a Sunday) Gary Glitter was arrested at his west London home. By strange coincidence, waiting there to film him doing the walk of shame was a Sky News TV crew. Now, obviously that crew could have been waiting there 24/7 since the Savile documentary was broadcast. Could have but I doubt it. The only way that they could have been there at virtually the crack of dawn on a Sunday morning was if the Met had tipped them off.
The Metropolitan Police Force is paid for by us. The Metropolitan Police Force works for us. Despite previous appearances, it does not work for Rupert Murdoch and the sooner it stops tipping off its mates in Wapping to get publicity the quicker we will start respecting the force again...
