Keep your hands off the Guardian, incompetent rozzers

[Clinton Huxley]

The metropolitan police, bastion of justice,competence and incorruptibility that they are, are planning to use the Official Secrets Act to force Guardian journalists to reveal their sources for the Milly Dowler phone hacking scandal. To which I say - fuck off, Metropolitan Police. Come on Guardian, give these rozzers a damned good thrashing.

I find The Watchtower better for sports and political comment.

The Guardian is a good paper basically becauses is a semi-charity, it doesnt need to make a profit , which is the main reason the BBC is so good as well

There was a report about that in our newspaper today. Sounds like sour grapes from the coppers - conflict of interest is what it seems like...

Quis custodes, and all that...

Also a bit of a smokescreen.

I'm surprised that the Guardian and other papers aren't ready for this tactic from the government or police.
There must be ways of organising the channels that a leak comes through to hide the source.
In the end, there probably was money paid, and that's what the Met is hoping.

If I was the home secretary, I would make sure that they had to drop this. It's one of those cases where the leak really DID do a public service, and the only losers were the corrupt people at the top of the Met and the News of the World, which was rubbish anyway.

I think this may fall foul of European human rights law. Besides which, the Guardians reputation can only be enhanced by telling the 'tards at the Met to do one.
