Andy Coulson investigated for perjury while working at No 10
Andy Coulson, the prime minister's former director of communications, is being investigated by police for allegedly committing perjury while working for David Cameron in Downing Street.

The development renews pressure on the prime minister over his judgment in hiring the former News of the World editor and represents the third criminal investigation Coulson faces, adding to allegations that he knew of phone hacking while in charge of the tabloid and authorised bribes to police officers.

So, the questions about Coulson just won't go away, and every new revelation further calls into question Cameron's judgement in hiring him in the first place. I had a bet with a friend last night that Cameron won't be PM a month from now.

However, given recent events in Norway this looks almost like comic relief. :cry:
