Oh the gossip! The revelations in 2011 were prime popcorn material for me but this is even better.

Got to love the sheer gall of Brooks & Coulson's lawyers ranting about how they don't want a trial by tabloid with Private Eye and the like.

I have a sneaky suspicion their wishes on that count might be disregarded.

The Mirror probably threw a impromptu party in their newsroom when they saw this lbr.

Watching the whole of Media Twitter EXPLODE in the space of about thirty seconds was very amusing indeed

I'm going to need more implosions like this is Cameron's inner circle, especially Lynton Crosby. Vile little man that he is.

[ceilidh_ann]

Woop, there it is.

Ugh I hate Katie Hopkins. I thought that her twitter was a spoof account but then I found out it was real.

[x_butterfly19_x]

Whha? They've given Katie a platform for her tomfoolery?

No way! Katie Hopkins? I seriously hate the fucking sun. Everyone bad choice that can be made, they make. Fucking twats.

The Sun's managing editor posted this, which I find very funny:

Oh no, we didn't, did we? The unmistakeable @KTHopkins joins the Sun as a columnist. You have been warned: http://t.co/UEAJN7e1OX

It's nice that The Sun have thrown off all pretences and are admitting they're nothing but a reactionary trolling bag of racists, misogynists, haters of the working class and shit-stirring.

See, I'm sure a lot of people would have cared on some level about the day-to-day evidence of the hacking trial, and made a lot of worthy noises about newspaper regulation vs. the importance of press freedom and whatnot.

But throw in some illicit shaggin'? KABOOM! Everyone's paying attention now! *cackle*

And they're starting with this! This is the first week, and it's going to go on for about four months! (Hopefully)

I wonder what else is going to come of this
