News International takes a trip to Salem

A short verse lamenting the posturing, points scoring and outright sliminess of some of the members of the Commons Select Committee enquiry into the conduct of News International

The Commons Select Committee

Is a haven of mediocrity

Reliant on tricks, traps and guile

Too much like a Salem witch trial
