"Let's discuss over country supper soon ... professionally we are in this together."

Here's the full version of Rebekah Brooks's cringe-making text to David Cameron, which has just been revealed during the latter's appearance at the Leveson inquiry.

Speech of your life? Yes he Cam!

Cameron was visibly embarrassed by the text but I suspect that Downing Street will be relieved if this is as bad as it gets. The publication of a sycophantic message from Cameron to Brooks (of which there are likely many) would have been far more damaging.
