Permalink UK officials of all colors are tied to Murdoch leash: Analyst

A political analyst says officials of all shades in the UK political spectrum have been “enslaved” by the Rupert Murdoch News Empire which aims to influence the public opinion, Press TV reports.

“[UK Labor leader] Ed Miliband has been desperate to put a line underneath this, but there were extremely close contacts, even more close contacts actually, between former Prime Minister Tony Blair [and the Murdoch empire] than David Cameron,” Chris Bambery said in an exclusive interview with Press TV. “Murdoch describes Tony Blair as a friend and they socialize, holiday together and there are extremely close connections between the two,” he added. Bambery said the trend continued with Blair's successor Gordon Brown, but “subsequently they fell out when News International's media, The Sun, refused to back him (Brown) in the last general election.” “They [UK officials] really believed that these people were decisive in swinging public opinion and therefore would do almost anything to curry favor with the Murdoch and News International,” he added. Bambery noted that the whole scandal is very revealing about the current state of democracy in Britain. [Video]
