  • Hacking Affair Is Not Over – but What Would a Second Leveson Inquiry Achieve?
    7/10/2019 Hacking affair is not over – but what would a second Leveson inquiry achieve? Academic rigour, journalistic flair Hacking affair is not over – but what would a second Leveson inquiry achieve? July 25, 2014 3.57pm BST Author John Jewell Director of Undergraduate Studies, School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies, Cardiff University On we go. Ian Nicholson/PA In the latest episode in the long-running saga that is the phone hacking affair, Dan Evans, a former journalist at the News of the World and Sunday Mirror, has received a 10 month suspended sentence after being convicted of two counts of phone hacking, one of making illegal payments to officials, and one of perverting the course of justice. Coming so soon after the conviction of Andy Coulson and the acquittal of Rebekah Brooks and others, one could be forgiven for assuming that the whole phone hacking business is now done and dusted. Not a bit of it. As Julian Petley has written: “Eleven more trials are due to take place involving 20 current or former Sun and News of the World journalists, who are accused variously of making illegal payments to public officials, conspiring to intercept voicemail and accessing data on stolen mobile phones.” We also learned in June that Scotland Yard had officially told Rupert Murdoch of their intention to interview him as part of their inquiry into allegations of crime at his British newspapers. The Guardian revealed that Murdoch was first contacted in 2013, but the police ceded to his lawyers’ request that any interrogation should wait until the Coulson–Brooks trial had finished.

Governments, police and security services alone cannot turn a city or a country into a place where terrorism cannot survive. If we are to make London the safest major city in the world, we must mobilise against terrorism not only the resources of the state, but also the active support of the millions of people who live and work in the capital. Only together can we hope to prevent a repetition of what happened here in London on 7 July 2005, or worse. The Metropolitan Police Authority, in recognising the role Londoners have to play in countering the terrorist threat, has consulted over 1,000 London residents and workers through its programme, ‘Counter-Terrorism: The London Debate’.

  • Trial by Media1 Judiciary Working Group Session 1 November 2012
    Union Internationale des Avocats: 56th Annual Congress, Dresden Judges, tabloids and trial by media1 Judiciary Working Group Session 1 November 2012 Illustration: Front page of the Sun, 23 March 2011, criticizing judges for being soft on crime. One of their main targets was Lord Justice Leveson; the Sun complained that Leveson LJ “introduced proposals to let 4,000 assault convicts [sic] a year go free rather than face jail”. Introduction Winning in the court of public opinion can be as important as winning in court. This gives the media, especially tabloids, power not only to write about court proceedings, but to influence them. Editorials complaining about “soft” sentencing, recommendations for law reform and accounts of criminal trials form a significant part of the newsgathering process. However, some trials seem to grip the public imagination, and the resultant blizzard of media stories may provoke concerns that the trial process is being overtaken by “trial by media”. Most journalists and media academics consider there is already a satisfactory balance between protection of the judicial process and freedom of expression; all that is needed is a responsive self-regulatory body2 for those cases where there is misconduct. What sort of regulation (if any) 1 Judge J C Gibson, District Court of NSW, Australia; President, Judiciary Working Group. 2 See the proposed models for a revised PCC discussed by Damian Carney, “Media Accountability After the Phone Hacking Inquiry”, Meejalaw 30 August 2012.

    UK announces inquiry into phone hacking Print Email Australian Broadcasting Corporation Broadcast: 06/07/2011 Reporter: Philip Williams British newspaper News of the World is facing an independent inquiry and the loss of advertisers after a public backlash against phone hacking. Transcript TONY JONES, PRESENTER: The British prime minister, David Cameron, has promised an independent inquiry into allegations of phone hacking by the News of the World. In the latest revelations, police have warned families of those killed in the 2005 London bombings that their mobile phone messages may also have been hacked by the newspaper. The scandal has provoked a public backlash and a number of high-profile companies have withdrawn advertising from the newspaper. With the latest developments, Europe correspondent Philip Williams. PHILIP WILLIAMS, REPORTER: When it was just the rich and famous being hacked, there was interest but not anger. All that has changed with allegations the practice was widespread and included murder victims Milly Dowler and Jessica Chapman and Holly Wells, killed in the village of Soham in 2002. Their parents have been warned they were targeted. As were relatives of some of the victims of the 7/7 London bombings, that news coming just a day before the sixth anniversary of those attacks. GRAHAM FOULKES, FATHER OF LONDON BOMBING VICTIM: My mind went back to 2005 and the real emotional turmoil and state that we were in, and that somebody was listening to that. It's a violation, isn't it? HUGH GRANT, ACTOR: So many of the victims of phone hacking were rich or famous or whatever, ..

  • Memorandum Submitted by Amberhawk Training Ltd
    Memorandum submitted by Amberhawk Training Ltd Recommendation: The Committee (possibly with the assistance of the Interception of Communications Commissioner) needs to explore the consequences of the MPS legal advice (as mentioned in Q5 of Mr Yates' comments) in relation to a review of the protection afforded to individuals by the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA). If the arguments underpinning the MPS legal advice, then a change to RIPA might need to be urgently recommended. When Parliament provided public authorities with intercepting powers in 1999, Parliament had in mind the protection of all messages – not just the content of the unread ones. Argument I refer to the evidence given by Assistant Commissioner John Yates of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS). Mr Yates’ answer to Q5 reveals that the MPS have obtained legal advice from a leading QC which, if applied in practice, has some strange consequences. For example, it could mean that unread spam messages receive a high level of privacy protection under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA) whereas read private email messages of immense confidentiality do not receive any privacy protection from RIPA. In relation to the incidence of “voice mail hacking”, Mr Yates said the following (at Q5 - see references): Mr Yates: “.... hacking is defined in a very prescriptive way by the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act and it’s very, very prescriptive and it’s very difficult to prove.... There are very few offences that we are able to actually prove that have been hacked. That is, intercepting the voicemail prior to the owner of that voicemail intercepting it him or herself”.
