Murdoch claiming he never asked Blair for anything is absolute rubbish. You don't get that close to a PM without wanting favors. Just corrupt suits. 🥱

I don't think Murdoch was challenging the elites at all. He just bought politicians to rig the system for himself. That isn't being a courageous outsider. It is just typical entitlement and corruption.

Thatcher bent the rules.
