      Haha, love the angle. I normally feel really uncomfortable with these type of interviews, because Paul was absolutely destroyed in front of millions of people, and it feels like bullying. But to think going on air and defending the stuff he did makes him look and sound like the vermin he clearly is, so the more people destroy the rat the better. He's not a journalist. He's that feral pleb in the office or playground that goes round grassing on other people because he's got absolutely no personality of his own. It's his only way to feel important. To think that he's breathing the same air as normal people even annoys me!

      That’s one thing though isn’t it? They also exposed huge amounts of corruption but Partridge here is batting for the rich and famous, and using a dead girl as a human shield. Far more reprehensible than the NOTW, and this was about bringing down a right leaning paper, this had nothing to do with decency.

      @@sarahholland2600 1. That’s the deal if you work in entertainment. Same as football. If you want people hanging on your every word and women throwing themselves at you, press intrusion is the price you pay. Of course, arrogant narcissists like Steve don’t agree. Like you, they think they deserve all the perks but none of the downsides.
      2. This had nothing to do with press corruption, this was a left winger taking down a right leaning paper for a political victory.
      If you’ve ever heard Steve speak about “tories” he’s the most bigoted man alive, despite being a comedy actor, he thinks he has credentials to comment on politics when in reality a hairdresser is probably better qualified.
      He used Milly Dowler as hard evidence - he passed on the countless incidents of corruption they exposed and centred on the mistakes - so he did indeed exploit that for his own benefit. As for the donation, that was clearly well publicised. It’s kind of the minimum standard.
      Well done Steve, you helped usher in a world of state press censorship to protect the lifestyles of the rich and famous snd for political point scoring.
      If he wasn’t such an Islington “tory scum” asswipe I’d have a bit more sympathy.
