Peter Fahy (Greater Manchester Police, home of Bullshire’s Insp Sheeran) and Peter Jukes (home of Byline mendacity ) had a five minute piece on Radio 4’s Today programme. Jukes wished to rely heavily on phone hacking, it fell flat. Jukes failed to mention his own close links to Eliot Higgins (77th Brigade, GCHQ) and ex Det Ch Supt Dave Cook, who went on to try and have innocent men framed.
Jukes then unsuccessfully attempted to use Mazher Mahmood in his argument. The “Fake Sheikh” did little wrong except trap gullible folks with their own greed. Fahy did not get enough time, his basic line was sound, that police and journalists work together. The rot sets in at the top, such as with John Yates. Finally, Jukes fell back on his obsessions with Leveson Two and Murdoch.
Would that be a reprise of Ian Hurst, a serial fantasist, (Martin Ingram) who lied about being Stakeknife‘s handler?
