Hacking of phone scandal - BBC News

July 6, 2011, 08: 35 GMT update the roles of Andy Coulson (l) and Rebecca Brooks (r) should come under scrutiny by parliamentary deputies are to hear calls for a public inquiry into the alleged phone hacking at news of the world.

Commons President John Bercow awarded an emergency debate after it was claimed that the murdered teenager Milly Dowler phone was disrupted in 2002 by a researcher working for the paper.

It has since been alleged that Advisor of former media of David Cameron Andy Coulson authorized payments to the police while he was the editor of the world news.

The debate will last three hours.

As the revelations continue to emerge, the families of the victims of the attacks of 7 July 2005 are complained they have had their phones shocked by the news of the world.

Meanwhile, police investigating piracy of claims against the paper contacted the parents of murdered schoolgirls Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman.

"Truly terrible".

Political Editor BBC Nick Robinson said a "evacuation of mass anger" was probably in the Commons debate.

Prior to this, David Cameron will take part in the session of questions to the Minister of its first weekly, with deputies of the work should focus on his relationship with Mr. Coulson.

There is usually precious little sympathy for members of Parliament complained the media.

Governments too have traditionally been extremely reluctant to take on the press. And yet this time there is a strong feeling that the media can not escape so lightly.

To begin with, there seems to be a broad consensus party crossed behind calls for an investigation and a sense of deep gut among many members of Parliament that the sections of the media are out of control.

Second, the nature of the claims Milly Dowler and Soham parents are so shocking, many Westminster believes that it is almost impossible to see the Parliament to raise the shoulders and walk on by.

But above all, public outrage is such that members of Parliament for the first time have public opinion fully behind them in seeking to rein in the sections of the media.

This combination can do all this, but impossible for Ministers - regardless of their understandable caution on exasperate the media - not signal with at least a willingness to consider an investigation after police investigations are over.

International News spent emails to the police which seems to show that payments to agents were allowed by the Coulson during his tenure as the news of the editor of world from 2003 to 2007.

Editor of BBC business that Robert Peston said that this showed the investigation into the alleged illegal techniques used by the document for the stories went much broader than piracy phone review.

Mr. Coulson resigned when the royal Editor by the tabloid, Clive Goodman, was jailed for conspiracy to access phone messages. Private detective Glenn Mulcaire was imprisoned for six months on the same charge.

But an investigation of the May 2007 Press Complaints Commission found no evidence that Mr. Coulson or someone else in the document had been aware of the activities of Goodman and the same month, he became Director of Mr. Cameron of communications.

He resigned this position in January, stating that the growing phone hacking scandal, he was difficult to concentrate on his role of Government.

Mr. Coulson not commented the recent allegations, although he said would have been friends he suspected, it is used to divert attention from the international press.

Leader of the labour party Ed Miliband said Rebecca Brooks - who has been Chief Editor of the news of the world at the time Milly Dowler disappeared and Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman were killed, and is currently Executive Director of the News International - should "consider its position" and "to examine his conscience".

However, Ms. Brooks said telephone of Milly piracy claims are "almost too horrible to believe" and committed "action possible more" if they prove to be true. She said that it was "inconceivable" that she knew about it at the time.

Mr. Cameron said that if the allegations of hack - and delete - Milly voice messages are true, they are a "truly terrible act".

But the Government has not committed to the holding of an independent investigation, noting that the investigation of current police of events is the "absolute priority".

The joint motion should be debated is not "substance", which means that, even if a vote is held, it will not force the Government to take action.
