Sentencing David Cameron's former spin doctor, left, Justice Saunders told the Old Bailey: 'Mr Coulson has to take the major shame for the blame of phone hacking at the NotW. He knew about it, he encouraged it when he should have stopped it'. The disgraced journalist was jailed along with former news editors Neville Thurlbeck, 52, top right, and Greg Miskiw, 64, above left. Hacker-in-chief Glenn Mulcaire, 43, below left, and James Weatherup, 58, bottom right, received suspended prison sentences. The Prime Minister was forced into a humiliating apology after his former spin doctor was found guilty last week and today said: 'It is right that justice should be done and no one is above the law'.
