'Incredibly erroneous' - @ianpaisleymp hits out at revelation his father's phone was ’tapped’

Security services tapped the phone of the late Ian Paisley while he was an MP, John Prescott has claimed. The DUP leader had his calls tapped despite a long-standing convention that MPs should not have their communications monitored, the former deputy Prime Minister said. Lord Prescott said then Prime Minister Tony Blair told him in the year 2005 that security services had eavesdropped on an MP. He revealed the details today in the his column for the Sunday Mirror. Stephen spoke to Ian Paisley Jnr and got his reaction.
