The UK's opposition Labour Party has challenged Prime Minister David Cameron over dinning secretly with James Murdoch, the son of the media tycoon Rupert.
英國的反對黨工黨己提出挑戰首相卡梅倫，在秘密與詹姆斯默多克用餐，傳媒巨頭魯珀特的兒子。
The Prime Minister has held a secret dinner with James Murdoch amid the government's attempt to decide on the Murdoch media empire after a flurry of resignations and dismissals over telephone hacking at Murdoch's News of the World and his bid to buy BskyB, the daily Independent reported.
首相已舉行一餐秘密的晚飯與詹姆斯默多克，正值政府有企圖決定在默多克的媒體帝國，在一輪辭職和解僱後，為電話黑客在默多克的新聞世界及他的出價購買英國天空廣播公司，每日獨立報報導。
The Labor Opposition questioned whether Cameron had broken the ministerial code of conduct by meeting the chairman of News Corporation in Europe and Asia.
反對黨工黨質疑卡梅倫已否破壞部長級的行為守則，因會見歐洲和亞洲的新聞集團的主席。
Cameron's secret meeting with James comes only a few days after the premier stripped Vince Cable, the Liberal Democrat Business Secretary, of the power to decide whether News Corp should be allowed to buy the 61 percent of BSkyB it does not already own.
卡梅倫與詹姆斯的秘密會議，出現只是在總理解除自由民主黨的商業司文斯奇寶的權力幾天後，以決定新聞集團應否被允許購買它尚未擁有的英國天空廣播公司61%。
The government was also under an all-party pressure over its links with Rupert Murdoch despite last week's resignation of Andy Coulson, the Downing Street director of communications, over the continuing controversy about telephone hacking at Murdoch's News of the World, which cost Coulson his job as the paper's editor in 2007.
Simon Hughes, the Liberal Democrats' deputy leader, was expected to pursue legal action against News International over his phone being hacked rather than accept an out-of-court settlement.
He told the Commons last September that while he defended freedom of the press, "this [phone hacking] is abuse and illegality. It has to end, and we must be robust about it."
The Independent revealed that Cameron met James Murdoch at the Oxfordshire home of Rebekah Brooks, the chief executive of News International. The private dinner she hosted took place shortly before Christmas.
