Business Secretary Vince Cable has told the Leveson Inquiry that "veiled threats" were made against the Liberal Democrats when he was assessing News Corporation's 2010 bid for BSkyB.

He said his party was warned it would be "done over" in the firm's newspapers if he ruled against its takeover attempt.
