It would be churlish to suggest, of course, that the only reason the Express keeps grabbing at DPoW (much like Dodi, James Hewitt, that rugby player and possibly Cliff Richard) is because they seem to be taking in not-so-subtle payouts from a certain shopkeeper. The same shopkeeper who, according to the other, saner newspapers, took a press conference saying that justice had not yet been served. Why? One commentator, who I can't be bothered to look up in the name of citation, suggested that it is because he refuses to admit Harrods security was lax. More likely it is because he's a fat-headed idiot who doesn't like being out of the spotlight, tact be damned.
