tony? >> i think in a corrupt society in a perfect society as we have, there has to be a hope or a projected ideal that there is justice, we'll say, in the court system and that there's idealistic lawyers, and there's fair judges, and there's not, you know, indelible bias and prejudice and rac racism, sexis, and all of those things dissipate, you know, when we approach the per diem. it's just like blinding our self. it's a way of taking the placebo instead of the medicine. great reform is required. we're threatened now by totalitarian tactics, grand juries, informants, mandatory sentencing. it's not very good, my friends. we're losing constitutional rights every day. and i think the way we appease our conscious, those of us who desire, i guess, not to probe and not to reform and not to speak out is we pretend that things have occurred in courts that didn't real liquor. [applause] >> it sounds like all of those things would make great tv or, of course, a great novel. paulette, you've spent s

he helped tony win over murdoch. is that true or not? >> it may be. i think that irwin steltzer became somebody that liked tony blair, liked what new labour was doing and probably was part of the discussions that were going on within that particular newspaper group. but i think we were always conscious that in terms of any decision that there would be about who they would back at the 1997 election that there was kind of -- that was a decision that would ultimately have been made by one man. >> mr. powell talks about the trip to heyman island, which of course we all know about. he continues, "tony put great efforts into maintaining the relationship right throughout his time in government and thereafter." >> yeah. >> and the issue of any tradeoffs, mr. campbell, this is paragraph 49 of your witness statement. page 00823. >> mm-hmm. >> can i deal with it bluntly in this way? are you able to assist the inquiry from your own knowledge of any evidence which would suggest that an express deal was made between mr. murdoch, m

and at times nor did tony blair. i think there were various points in my diary where i say we -- including just before the election, i have written about this at some length in my witness statement where the sun asked for a piece about europe and we talked about whether to do it and we didn't in any way change policy, but we knew kind of what they wanted. and i did feel a little bit uneasy at times. but there's no point pretending tony murdoch is not an important person in the media landscape. we dealt with him as has been well documented by all of us. >> the diary entry of yours for the 29th of january, 1997, t.b. was due to see murdoch on monday and said it angered him the meeting mattered. but it did. so that suggests -- that may be putting it too high but still a degree of distaste. would that be closer to it? >> yeah, at times, yeah. >> and also the perception rightly or wrongly that the meeting did matter because it was part and parcel of winning over his support? >> yep. >> might be better rather than to say n

so -- and tony blair was unable to give her that assurance. >> in your hearing? >> well, i know that he did.nab to give her that assurance. >> in your hearing? >> well, i know that he did.ablo give her that assurance. >> in your hearing? >> well, i know that he did. >> one key issue in relation to that act would be the decision to remove the restrictions on foreign media ownership. is that something that you were alive to? >> no, i don't -- im, although i was in charge of tony blair's media strategy, media relations, i was not -- i didn't see myself as a significant voice wind the media policy debate and i don't -- i can't remember what else was going on at that time. i don't remember being too involved in the policy discussions, in the communications on that. >> when the bill was going through the lords, it encountered some difficulty. and i think david putnam, lord putnam, was at the center of the opposition to it. did you have any discussions with him about that? >> i can't remember. i don't think so. but i may have done, i may have done. i can remember -- i m

. >> it doesn't shed very much more light upon it. >> only it does appear that it were a call that tony blair had made. whether that helps you or not, i don't know. >> let's not use the phrase implied express deal. let's not use any of those words. let me just understand what's going on here. the government was more than just contemplating, heading for a wall. it was obviously understandable if they wanted to discover what the reaction from those who were responsible for our media was going to be. and i could equally understand why a prime minister might think it of value to seek to get across in an unvarnished way, unmediated by other press what was really going on in his mind. >> uh-huh. >> to try and put the best case, which, of course, is presumably what he was thinking about, for the conclusions he had reached. but what i'm interested to know is where that leads. is it requesting support? is it neutral as to whether you have support? is it -- i mean, what's going on here? do you understand my question? >> yeah. by this point, as you say, it was perfectly clear where this is leading

but i don't -- i don't remember the calls themselves, but i've obviously spoken to tony blair about one of them and i've written something in my diary. >> which is the odd, not very clever comment. >> yeah. >> perhaps doesn't throw very much more light upon it. >> well, only -- it does make -- it does appear to suggest that it wasn't -- >> let's not use the phrase implied express deal. let's use none of those words. let me understand what's going on here. the government was more than just contemplate ing contemplata war. it was obviously understandable if they wanted to discover what the reaction from those who were responsible for our media was going to be. and i could equally understand why a prime minister might think it of value to seek to get across, in an unvarnished way, unmediated by other press comment, what was really going on in his mind to try and put the best case, which of course is presumably what he was thinking about, for the conclusion he'd reached. but what i'm interested to know is where that leads. is it requesting support? is it neutral as to whether you have suppo

tony blair would take the view that it wasn't particularly sensible. we argued about it over several years. >> we can quite see, mr. campbell, if we go back to 1997 which, of course, was before the death of princess diana, that included anything in the labor party manifesto which included government regulation reform might have been a bit ambitious, but others may comment on that. by the time we get to 2001, and in particular, 2005, there was a possibility, wasn't there, to include it within the government's selective program; is that correct? >> well, there was always the possibility. as to whether there was any likelihood, i suspect there wasn't. but some of us were arguing there should have been. >> when you refer to concerns about what the media culture was -- that's the second sentence of paragraph 16 -- >> yeah. >> can we be clear what the analysis is? it may be set to fall in two parts. is one the political analysis, which is the culture of negativity, the fusion of news and comments, the press driving the news agenda, all the matters which are

tony one-ups it. because not only do our programs try to put students and visitors and teachers into the boots of those who went long ago, tony, as he writes here, wants to get not into their boots, but into their minds. and he's done that with every book he's written, and it transports us to times and places that really challenge us. so we're here today and we'll have a conversation, and then we're going to open the floor to your questions to this amazing man. because you're our friend, we still get to say that you're an amazing man. sometimes we don't get to say that. >> they say you can't go home, but i lived here for 13 years. it still feels like home. there are at least five people in the audience who i don't know. so there you go. it's the old mom. so good to be back. >> thank you. as we're here in waterford, we're not far from harper's ferry, the subject of john brown's raid. some of us are very curious to understand how this historical landscape has influenced so much of your writing, whether

when have we learned from tony blair? >> he began with a guilty plea because he said that 21st came into office it had crossed his mind he could do something about the influence that the newspapers wielded in public life, but he decided against doing that. he said otherwise it would have on least a long and protracted battle for the government and the consequences for politicians could of been harsh. >> it's very important not to see this as simply about the murdoch media. with any of these big media groups, you fall out with them and you watch out, because it is unrelenting once that happens. my view is that is what creates the situation in which the media people get a power in the system that is not guilty and which i felt throughout my time uncomfortable with. i took the decision and this could be subject to criticism, and i took a strategic decision to manage this, not to confront it. but the power is inconceivable. >> a key question is whether because of that media power was policy influenced by it? >> exactly. tony

bbc because of the dispute we got into with them, the right wing papers mostly because they hated tony blair by then, it was a pretty difficult media landscape. and whether rupert murdoch was just kind of signalling being the last one standing, i don't know. so all i can really give you is what i put in my diary on that day. but there were two -- according to the cabin offers, between 2002 and 2005, tony blair spoke to rupert murdoch six times on the telephone. two of those times were during this period, and i think it's a combination of rupert murdoch trying to figure out what's going on, and also probably just saying we're going to support you on this. does that help? >> why would he need to do that? >> he wouldn't. he wouldn't. but i think it's -- again, i can't really help you beyond what i put in my statement. but i think he was -- it was the biggest issue anywhere in the world at that time. >> i understand that, but it's -- i suppose it goes back to the whole question of the perception of the reason why this intensely difficult time which you described in which we all remember si
