''So for them to suddenly turn on their fellow 'goodies' in this battle is worrying and deeply mysterious.''
Grant said he would be meeting Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg later and was also planning to attend similar events at the Conservative and Labour conferences.
He said politicians appeared to have ''grown balls'' over phone-hacking and other abuses back in July, and he wanted to see who had kept them.
He praised Labour MP Tom Watson's cross-examination of Rupert and James Murdoch and other News International figures, but expressed ''slight disappointment'' with the Commons Culture, Media and Sport Committee's performance in general.
Grant also questioned why broadcasters had been included in the terms of reference for the Leveson Inquiry, saying it seemed to be a ''Tory plot against the BBC''.
He added: ''The inquiry already has an awful lot to do and I do not see egregious breaches in the broadcast media...
''The rumour I heard was it was a Tory thing to bash the BBC.''
Despite admitting he was ''enjoying'' being involved in the phone-hacking campaign, the Love Actually star insisted he had no plans to enter the political arena himself.
Asked if he could become the UK's answer to former US president Ronald Reagan, who graduated from acting to enter the Whitehouse, he responded: ''No, I have no Ronald Reagan plans. I do not have that brainpower.''
Grant was also quizzed on how he would play David Cameron on screen.
He shot back: ''I only ever play one role. Don't be ridiculous.''
