Cameron's judgment and common sense called into question | @guardianletters
During the last 25 years, my constituency Labour party, Bury St Edmunds, sent a resolution to annual conference on more than one occasion, proposing the restriction of newspaper ownership by an individual or company, to one national daily, one Sunday and one local newspaper (Politicians gave Murdoch his power, now we must challenge it, Tom Watson, 26 June). Those resolutions fell on stony ground. I wish Tom Watson better luck in his efforts to press for this vital change.

This shows that David Cameron thought nothing about the criminal judicial process, but simply about his own survival. That he sought the legal opinion of attorney general Dominic Grieve shows the difficulty of mixing the crucial independence of the criminal law with politics.

As a Tory voter and one-time canvasser I simply cannot support and vote for the Conservatives with David Cameron at the helm. His poor judgment, foresight, and lack of basic common sense in employing Andy Coulson is a major embarrassment and a clear resignation issue. Cameron must bite the bullet here and go with honour, but go he must.

I sense in the criticism of David Cameron (Eton) by the judge in the phone-hacking case (Uppingham) some settling of old ruling class scores. Could it be the 1973 cricket match when Eton beat Uppingham by 55 runs I wonder?
