“[James and Rupe] won’t say anything [in parliamentary hearings to which they were summonsed Tuesday] but they [the Committee] will be asking questions, which will be almost as good,” [former NotW lawyer Tom] Crone told the Londoner this morning. He said he did not want to say anything “explosive” but admitted he might talk “if they completely screw me over”. Crone, who gave the green light for numerous scoops on the News of the World and The Sun for 26 years, yesterday suggested to the Standard that he did not jump but had been pushed.
