Thankyou for taking your time to answer the 'polls' above. Follow me @StevenNott 

I am a whistleblower and recently appeared at The Leveson inquiry with details about a 13 year cover up, between the mobile networks, the tabloids and the authorities. Now it's come back to bite them.....

For years I thought it was my fault the newspapers knew about phone hacking and for years I've carried a heavy guilt.

I don't know when it all started but one thing I do know is....I tried to stop it when many other's didn't want it exposed.

All of my evidence will be posted on this website in due course and that includes evidence that has not been made public also. To get an idea what I was up against please follow the links below and read my witness statement submitted to Lord Justice Leveson in 2011.

Here's a news article that appeared in the South Wales Argus on 13th October 1999 "Anyone can hear private messages"

My witness statement. http://www.levesoninquiry.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Witness-Statement-of-Steven-Nott.pdf

LORD JUSTICE LEVESON:  "Thank you, Mr Nott.  It's quite clear  this was a problem you identified in the late 1990s and it's now come home for us all to think about."


Here are some links you may find useful : The first is a video of Piers Morgan showing his true colours at The Leveson inquiry by insulting my character because he had no proper defence when my allegations were put to him. 






Vodafone appeared at the Leveson inquiry along with other network operators and the video link to that morning's testimony is below where you can hear Mark Hughes,  Head of Security at Vodafone saying "they don't know why they didn't do anything" after my warnings 13 years ago.
