Blimey! He's been denying this for years.

The unworthy thought occurs that he must have somehow found out they had the goods on him, or he would never have owned up.

[Rodo]

It will be a certain jail sentence.

Will he have to resign as an MP?

[Rodo]

He already has resigned. They say the by-election is going to be a really frantic battle between LibDems and Conservatives.

[TheOstrich]

Now just imagine if he'd beaten Cleggy in that Leadership contest a few years back ......

[cromwell]

True Os, but the LibDems have form for this re their leaders. Remember Jeremy Thorpe? Dodgy divils, all of 'em!

[pederito1]

Yes I remember well Ollie and it was illegal then too. Also Paddy and his little weakness and Kennedy and the bottle.

[Oojamaflip]

Hope he's also done for perverting the course of justice. Lying toe-rag. And his wife for aiding and abetting.

Yep what Ooj said!
