    The Leveson Inquiry Into the Cultures, Practices And

    For Distribution to CPs THE LEVESON INQUIRY INTO THE CULTURES, PRACTICES AND ETHICS OE THE PRESS WITNESS STATEMENT OE JAMES HANNING I, JAMES HANNING of Independent Print Limited, 2 Derry Street, London, W8 SHF, WILL SAY; My name is James Hanning. I am deputy editor of the Independent on Sunday and, with Francis Elliott of The Times, co-author of a biography of David Cameron. In the course of co-writing and updating our book we spoke to a large number of people, but equally I am very conscious that I, at least, dipped into areas in which I can claim very little specialist knowledge, so I would emphasise that in several respects there are a great many people better placed to comment and much of what follows is impressionistic. I hope that what follows is germane to some of the relationships that Lord Justice Leveson has asked witnesses to discuss. I hesitate to try to draw a broader picture, but I hope that some conclusions about the disproportionate influence of a particular sector of the media can be drawn from my experience. My interest in the area under discussion in the Third Module stems from two topics. One is in David Cameron, on whose biography we began work in late 2005, soon after Cameron became Tory leader. The second is an interest in phone hacking at the News of the World. Tory relations with Murdoch Since early 2007, the Conservative leadership has been extremely keen to ingratiate itself with the Murdoch empire. It is striking how it had become axiomatic that the support of the Murdoch papers was essential for winning a general election.

    DAVID CAMERON LIKES MY ART. Eva Weinmayr

    HELP! DAVID CAMERON LIKES MY ART. Eva Weinmayr This is the preprint version of the chapter published in "Distributed", edited by David Blamey and Brad Haylock, London, Open Editions, 2018. http://www.openeditions.com/index.php/distributed.html 1 My Work Received Approval From the Wrong Audience They saw the work on a gallery website. Looking for another artist’s work, they stumbled across the Today’s Question series that I had exhibited in a group show in the same gallery. They expressed an interest in acquiring the works for the UK Government Art Collection. This collection, they explained, purchases works of art for display in British government buildings around the world to promote British art and culture. However, they said the price I was asking was too high. But I was reluctant to let them strike a cheap deal and the board eventually decided to acquire only two works from the seven-piece series. The choice, it was later argued, reflected not just the limited budget, but also the fact that some pieces in the series were not really appropriate for the Government collection. Apparently the content was considered politically controversial and raised eyebrows in some quarters. The works they selected read: ‘How should we fight foot and mouth? – Kill or Vaccinate – Please tick’ and ‘31mph – A Crime? Yes or No. Please tick’. The large text works were based on questionnaires that had been jamming my fax machine for many months in the early 2000s. The faxes had been sent out by a company pretending to poll opinion on different subjects: it was claimed the poll results would be presented to important politicians and institutions, in order to influence their decision-making.

  • THE OPENCAST WAY Opencast Mining

    THE OPENCAST WAY Opencast Mining

    THE OPENCAST WAY The Opencast Way is a 32 mile circular walk around Scunthorpe utilising the Scunthorpe Ridge Walk and public footpaths through parts of the adjacent Parishes of Bottesford, Messingham, Holme, Broughton, Appleby, Roxby cum Risby, Winterton, Burton upon Stather and Flixborough. The Ridge walk traverses the old Parishes of Crosby, Scunthorpe, Frodingham, Brumby and Ashby, now incorporated into the town of Scunthorpe. The Route is titled after the method of extraction of the many and varied mineral deposits which was historically practised in the Scunthorpe Area, and in some instances still continued today. Typical examples are Limestone, Gravel, Sand and, of course, the mineral synonymous with Scunthorpe, Iron Ore. All of the route is associated with The Lincoln Edge, known as Lincoln Cliff in the south of the County, and is that portion of a major oolitic limestone escarpment that runs through the old Lincolnshire counties of Lindsey and Kesteven, and is a prominent landscape feature in a generally 'flat' county. Never rising more than 60m. above sea level it runs for 50miles from the Leicestershire border near Grantham to the River Humber. However, this band of limestone actually continues south and through to Portland Bill in Dorset and formed an ancient highway, The Jurassic Way, which generally followed the line of the Escarpment. The western side of the Edge is the Escarpment and overlooks the Trent Valley whilst the Eastern side, the Dip Slope, was until Napoleonic times, open desolate Heath Land. Prior to 1859, the year that Ironstone was rediscovered, the villages in this area had relied for their livelihood solely on agriculture and the breeding of wild rabbits.
