Energy Secretary Chris Huhne’s political career (not to mention his liberty) his hanging by a thread after he was interviewed by the police earlier this week. The Telegraph reports that they have a copy of a confession signed in front of a Lawyer admitting that she agreed to take speeding penalty points for him.
Start packing your bags son.
Serves Him Right for Wanting To Play With The Big Boys.
She must be really hacked off with him, to risk being charged with Conspiracy to Pervert the Course of Justice. Especially with the very real risk of a jail sentence to follow. Or perhaps the people behind this, forgot to explain that part to her.
Or perhaps (heaven forfend) she’s not being manipulated by ‘people behind this’ at all. Just because a Lib Dem minister is being investigated for dodginess doesn’t mean there’s a conspiracy. Perhaps he – like Laws – is actually guilty?
Iam all in favour of a suspended sentance, if not by the neck by another part of the antomy, in line with a previous eastliegh M.P.
Maybe the idea was that the penalty points were to be distributed in an AV fashion?
Like it!
