An ex Plod who worked as a spy for the News Of The World is pissed off because he wasn't given a "loyalty bonus" (payment for silence perhaps...) when the despicable rag closed over the phone tapping scandal.
So he's blabbed to Newsnight:
"A dossier of evidence obtained by BBC Newsnight from an ex-policeman hired by the News of The World (NoW) shows the newspaper was engaged in covert surveillance on an industrial scale.
Over eight years Derek Webb was paid to follow more than 100 targets.
They included Prince William, Prince Harry's ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy, former attorney general Lord Goldsmith and football manager Jose Mourinho.
The now-defunct paper's owner News International has yet to comment.
Along with celebrities like football pundit Gary Lineker, relatives of celebrities - such as the parents of actor Daniel Radcliffe - were also targeted.
Mr Webb says he is not ashamed of his actions and that he did nothing illegal."
Not only isn't he ashamed but he tries to justify his creepy behaviour with this little pearl:
"... if I wasn't doing it, somebody else would have been."
So that's OK then?
Funny how we hung a lot of Nazis despite their use of the same lame excuse.
What is more worrying is that the Police evidently had no issues with employing someone with such a warped view.
I can only hope he did do something "naughty" & gets found out by his ex colleagues.
