Harman: I've got nothing to apologise for

"I'm not going to apologise because I've got nothing to apologise for," Harriet Harman said today.

"I very much regret that this vile organisation, PIE, ever existed, and that is ever had anything to do with NCCL but it did not affect my work at NCCL - they had been pushed to the margins before I actually went to NCCL."

She went on: "To allege that I was involved in collusion with paedophilia or aplogising for paedophilia is quite wrong and is a smear."
