… goes to ConservativeHome editor Tim Montgomerie, who says:

I do not wish to defend every action of the News International empire, but Rupert Murdoch has been an overwhelming force for good in this country’s life and politics. Sky Sports has revolutionised English football.

Compared to the increasingly isolationist Daily Mail – which has consistently appeased foreign dictators since the 1930s – there is also something bracingly internationalist about News International.

That is so cringingly bad I think it deserves its own prize. If Rupert Murdoch does not give Montgomerie a job or at least invests in CH then I shall be sorely disappointed. It is funny though, that when Tories get caught in compromising positions then they scream revenge but when its the opposition doing it when they scream ‘whataboutery’. This takes arse-licking to a whole new level. Hey, who cares about your phone being “blagged”, look at least you get footy on Sky Sports!
