Piers Morgan tells Leveson: Daily Mirror did not hack phones

The former editor of the News of the World and the Daily Mirror, Piers Morgan, has been giving evidence at the Leveson Inquiry into press ethics.

Despite being pressed repeatedly, he said he did not believe that he had ever listened to illegally obtained voice messages.

He also said no phone hacking had taken place at the Daily Mirror, to the best of his recollection.
