Paul Foot and his former paymaster
Antoine Clarke (London)  Opinions on liberty

Is this "Paul Foot" who condemns "corporate greed" and "boardroom fraud" the very same "Paul Foot" who - as a lap-dog of the late Mr Robert Maxwell M.C. at the Mirror Group - took money from a crook who was robbing his colleagues' pension fund, ignored the accumulated evidence of investigations into his masters frauds, and to my knowledge has never shown the slightest remorse for covering up - by his silence - the biggest corporate crime in British history?

I trust that I am completely mistaken, otherwise I could never look at Private Eye or the Guardian again without worrying about the editorial integrity of these fearless organs.
