Leveson Inquiry: Cameron says clock ticking for papers

David Cameron has met newspaper editors and told them the clock is ticking for them to set up a new press regulator.

The meeting comes in the wake of the Leveson report which called for an independent self-regulatory body for the press, backed up by legislation.

Labour and the Liberal Democrats both support statutory underpinning, but the prime minister and the majority of Conservative MPs are against it.
