Corruption...

[imamartian]

Why are we all surprised by this phone hacking thing. Isn't the whole world corrupt? Isn't that a symptom of the the greed that defines a human animal?

Phone hacking = posties stealing letters = butchers pumping water into bacon = Japanese Whaling fleets = money paid for votes in the world cup hosting process = mechanics charging for 'Ford' parts and using cheap imitations = vanloads of rubbish fly-tipped rather than paying at the tip = rigged votes = bent coppers = benefit cheats = getting too much change and not owning up = speeding and not getting caught = charity money ending up buying guns = a million other things.....

but aren't we all at it? really?

Speak for your self.
And speeding is not corruption.
You didn't mention the biggest corrupt bunch of all. Politicians!

My yoke is diesel.
That said I still wouldn't do it. Embezelled money never stays with you.
My Dad was as bent as a two bob bit and it never got him no where.

Asda actually.

And looking at the cctv footage, the guy who got the word out was ringing all his mates whilst filling his Range Rover.

Perhaps the Met should have been under such scrutiny much sooner - and not just for the NOW issues?
