Prostitute gives interview on Osborne
A prostitute who was photographed with Chancellor George Osborne in front of what appeared to be a line of cocaine is to give a television interview about how she became a victim of tabloid phone hacking. Natalie Rowe, who appeared in two tabloid newspapers with Mr Osborne in 2005, may also shed light on why he later recommended Andy Coulson to work as the Conservatives' communications chief. Mr Osborne has always denied taking drugs with Ms Rowe.
In the continuing phone hacking investigation, police have discovered David Blunkett's phone was hacked by Glenn Mulcaire, a private investigator employed by the News of the World. Gordon Brown has asked that the scope of Operation Weeting, be widened to include an investigations company called Abbey Investigators.
