                By suggesting a witch hunt has the boy thrown the clock out the window?

                Perhaps CID wanted to make the critters dance.

                    On (I think) Newsnight the other night, the lawyer Charlotte Harris did observe that Ms Brooks' outfit for the Leveson Enquiry looked like something out of the Salem Witch Trials. Perhaps this is carefully orchestrated?

                      She was aiming for the demure innocent look - something women (oh dear, I feel that I'm straying into sexism territory) tend to do in such situations. Men go for the neat suit & tie look (cf any footballer had up in court).

                      Martin Raowson in the Guardian had her as a Puritan -

                            Very possibly, but I might mention that I had nothing to do with the orchestration and that Len Hinton is no relative of mine. Honest, guv. Really.

                              I find it rather pathetic that a new thread has started based solely on personal attack and personal insult. I assume the OP finds it hilarious that the term "witch hunt" was used. However that is precisely what has occured. This a politically motivated prosecution, and I am sure that when it comes to court it will be shown to be just that. Besides which, any chance of a fair trial has long since been scuppered. Just look at a thread such as this.
