Uk Secretly Tapped Ian Paisley's Phone - Former Deputy Pm

The British security services tapped the phone of the late Ian Paisley while he was an MP. That's according to Lord Prescott, Britain's former Deputy Prime Minister. His claim comes despite a long-standing convention UK MPs should not have their communications monitored. The Sunday Mirror says Lord Prescott does not know when Mr Paisley's phone was tapped - or whether MI5, MI6, police or the British army were responsible.
