Milly's Family Calls For Brooks To Quit

The family of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler are meeting the Deputy Prime Minister to call for "stronger, clearer and faster action" from the Government over phone hacking.

Bob and Sally Dowler are suing the News of the World following claims their daughter's mobile phone was targeted when she went missing in 2002.

Mrs Dowler and Milly's sister Gemma are among 13 victims and campaigners calling on Nick Clegg to ensure a comprehensive inquiry is carried out.

Downing Street said talks will be held with Prime Minister David Cameron later this week.

The Media Standards Trust, which has led a major campaign on the issue and has organised the meetings, said it was also arranging a session with Labour leader Ed Miliband.

The news that Milly's phone was among those targeted by the newspaper kicked off a wave of public outrage, which led to the paper's closure and its final issue being published on Sunday.

It also emerged that the families of terror victims had also had their messages hacked.

Mr Cameron has announced that a judge-led inquiry will be held into the scandal.

It is thought the Trust, which led the Hacked Off campaign for a public inquiry, is keen to be able to address its concerns separately with the three main party leaders.

Others attending the talks include former Scotland Yard deputy assistant commissioner Brian Paddick, phone hacking victim Nicola Phillips and solicitor Mark Lewis - who represents the Dowlers and other hacking victims.
