If Harry has moved on to the Guardian, those of us who have had dealings with him in some of his various pre Harrys place incarnations might well be inclined to warn his new co workers that it probably wont be long before the ordure begins to be stirred in preperation for his next move to the Murdoch press or, perhaps even the Telegraph.
