Yet another indication has emerged that Tory head spinner, Andy Coulson knew perfectly well how much dodgy (= plain illegal) news-gathering was going on at the Screws while he was there.
          Guardian sniffer-hack, Nick Davies has identified (though not named, as sub judice) another private investigator who was employed by the Screws when Andy was deputy editor, then went to jail, only to return to their employment when Coulson himself was in the hot seat. Davies quotes Coulson’s reaction to the allegations: “I have nothing to add to the evidence I gave to the select committee.”
          Evidence indeed!
          All he would say to the MPs was, “I don’t know”, or “I have no recollection,” to every question he was asked – a clear instance of the “amnesia and obfuscation” for which the Committee has heavily criticised the News International executives they called to their inquiry.
          By retaining the services of this tainted communications wiz, Cameron is storing up major problems if he ever gets to Downing Street. The thinking electorate (oh yes, there are some) are not happy either with this association, nor Cameron’s relationship with Coulson’s former boss, Rebekah “TestaRossa” Brooks.
          If he wants to boost his chances of a win in May, he needs to drop Toxic Andy, right NOW, however much cherubic George complains (and tell the Sun he can do without their help, too.)
