Mysteriously, this vanished from the bbc site pretty sharpish, but here it is;

"LONDON — Prime Minister David Cameron is to appear next week before an inquiry into press ethics sparked by the phone-hacking scandal at Rupert Murdoch's newspapers.
Cameron, whose government has been under fire over a series of revelations about its closeness to Murdoch's media empire, will give evidence on June 14, according to a witness list published on the Leveson Inquiry website."
Finance minister George Osborne is to testify on Monday, as will former prime minister Gordon Brown, according to the list published Friday.
Another ex-premier, John Major, will appear Tuesday along with opposition Labour leader Ed Miliband, while deputy prime minister Nick Clegg and Scottish first minister Alex Salmond are scheduled for Wednesday.
The prime minister is likely to face questions about his friendship with former top Murdoch aide Rebekah Brooks, who has been arrested over the phone-hacking scandal and charged with conspiracy to obstruct justice.
He may also be asked about his former media chief Andy Coulson, an ex-editor of Murdoch's News of the World newspaper, who has been charged with perjury in a case relating to a story in the paper.
Coulson was separately arrested last year on suspicion of phone hacking and corruption.
Cameron, Osbourne, John Major, Clegg and Milliband!
Great news. Though I'm not expecting much from it.
Rap News does a fantastic job of explaining some of the connections, again.
