So they need to tread a careful path to ensure that inquiries take place,that all is done within the law to ensure that BSkyb is not just handed over to Murdoch and that anyone guilty of illegallity pays the price but without trying to score political points.It could backfire on them particularly with the public.

Basically they need to be acting in the interests of the country not the party.
