9:09 pm
it is very clear. he could not use for the ads appear in this case. i am sorry that the whole political strategy behind his opposition has collapsed, but nonetheless, that is the fact. he asked very specifically about the note that these cultures secretary sent to me on the 19th of november. in that note, he specifically says it would be completely wrong to go against the proper regulatory procedures. the truth of what has happened in recent days is the culture secretary gave a very full account of his actions to the inquiry. he demonstrated that when it came to this, he took independent advice and every part of the process, he followed independent advice every part of the process, which is in
9:10 pm
complete contrast to how the last government behave. >> a clear about what you are claiming. when the call for cedras told the scouts -- told this house, i made no reservations secant to influence a decision, that a memo to a prime minister is an insignificant documents in relation to a decision the government is to make. the first time in political history that that is the case. if the case is so strong, why is it not being supported? >> let me read exactly what this no said. -- note said. "it would be wrong for the government to get involved in an issue that has been decided at arm's flags." that is what it said. when he got responsibility, he behaved in exactly that way. the whole reason " we are discussing this takeover is
9:11 pm
because the last government changed of the whopping two and now a foreign company to own a british license. this is a point that they conveniently forget. he asked me very specifically about the deputy of the prime minister. let me be absolutely frank. what we are talking about here is the relationships that conservative politicians and frankly labor politicians have had over the last 20 years with news corp., news international, and all the rest break. to be fair to the liberals, i understand it is politics. >> order. calm down. order.
9:12 pm
>> i have to say, he is reached a new state of delusion. [laughter] mr. speaker, he wants to talk about the pass. -- past. he just wants to talk about the past. is not the truth of the deputy prime minister, the deputy prime minister says says the decision should go to the independent adviser, the conservative chairman of the committee. the former chair of the committee says it should be referred. is not the truth the reason you will not refer him to the independent visor is because he
9:13 pm
is scared the culture will not be clear. >> imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. [laughter] he says we're talking about the past. there are elements of this. this whole inquiry. the whole problem of the relationship between politicians and press, some of it is about we had inside when the former prime minister gave evidence. inness' from rare moment, he said the one thing i can say definitely is, no one in my position would have instructed briefing against the ad -- prime minister. [laughter] i can tell you -- perhaps -- i do not -- perhaps the victims could put
9:14 pm
their hand up? anyone basketbal>> reality is t. it is the prime minister who is clinging onto him now in the face of all the evidence. does not he realize it is no longer about the judgment, it is about the prime minister's judgment, which is so badly flawed, even his deputy will not support him? i hope our football team will be better at putting the ball in the back of the net. >> the point is, except for the prime minister to make the judgment. my judgment is we should let the culture secretary get on with organizing the most important event, which is the olympics. let us just consider this. if there was an olympic medal for double standards can rank
