Former Lib Dem cabinet minister Chris Huhne has today pleaded guilty to a charge of perverting the course of justice after denying it publicly for over a year. He is expected to resign his seat in the House of Commons tomorrow.
The charge relates to a speeding incident some ten years ago when Huhne was caught by a speed camera. His now ex wife alleged some time ago after the break up of their marriage that she was coerced by Huhne into taking responsibility for the offence and the speeding points associated with it even though he was the driver of the vehicle. She also faces trial starting tomorrow on a charge of perverting the course of justice.
Huhne previously and unsuccessfully challenged Nick Clegg for leadership of the Lib Dems.
A prison sentence of between 6 and 9 months is quite normal for such an offence.

Chris Huhne sentenced to 8 months imprisonment after receiving a 10% discount for pleading guilty prior to the start of his trial. Vicky Pryce also sentenced to 8 months. Both sentences effective immediately, it is expected that both will be released at the 4 month mark.

Just about long enough for both to make a start on their autobiographies, and flog them for a million when they come out!!

John I think considering the short time MWT had to make the documentary without much help he gave an unbiased account laid bare for TV viewers
Authors on the other hand are more likely to 'embroider' the facts and get away with much more than a documentary maker
As I said before I am just trying to get to the facts in the case and there is not a single piece of evidence from Barbara Wilson or anyone else that shows Jeremy hated farming
I still believe the 'Jeremy hated farming' or Jeremy was buying a porche stories are deliberate attempts to give an excuse why JB would murder his family

Am I the only one that thinks Vicky Huhne looks like a rather unconvincing transvestite?

All this 'nit picking' is completely irrelevant. Deal with the real issues.
How could Shelia have carried out the murders?
Honestly, it's all so blindingly obvious. I don't know why I or anyone else on here, bother reading the utter drivel you churn out. No offence intended. I'm sure you're a nice lady but where this case is concerned, you seem to have taken leave of your senses.

And Carina Trimingham really does look like Wendolene Ramsbottom.

You are right but Wendoline is more pretty.

Ouch!... oooh, girls... that was below the belt, I deduct one point from both of you!!! 8(0(* @)(++(*

Yep, she does, I couldn't have put it better myself! I've heard Danny Alexander being described as a clone for Beaker from is it Sesame Street or the Muppets?
-
Oh wow, definitely, Beaker from the Muppets.
Chorus: "It's time to get things started, get things started, on the Muppet Show tonight!"
Sorry off topic...
I like to think I have a sense of humor but I am mostly just irritating.

Now we all know why the country is in such a mess as tricky Vicky was supposed to be a talented economist who worked for the government. With talent like that no wonder both of them ended up in stir. @)(++(*

Allegedly involving Ms Constance Briscoe.
From Wikipedia:
In February 2013, at the trial of Vicky Pryce police stated that Briscoe's arrest related to the release of information to the press on behalf of Vicky Pryce contrary to statements Briscoe had made, and the police could not rely upon Briscoe as a "witness of truth". Pryce was a friend and neighbour of Briscoe. Briscoe has not been charged but remained on police bail.
Ms Briscoe has had an otherwise outstanding career so I hope this can be cleared up soon.

Small world, she's had her fair share of Murphy's law - first sued by her mother for claiming she was verbally abused as a child, then.... Constance Briscoe was a former partner of Anthony Arlidge, (prosecuting counsel in the Bamber case of 1986) who ditched her for a younger model...,

I see what you mean:
Mr Arlidge, a grandfather of nine whose cases have included the Jeremy Bamber murder trial now works part-time at 18 Red Lion Court chambers, who have offices in central London and Chelmsford, Essex.
He said of his latest love: "We are living together. The relationship is going very well.
“We share a love of sports, I am taking her to the Olympics to see the football and athletics.
“I've met her mother and she says that if her daughter is happy, then so is she."
Wow these baristas have such an exciting life. Is it something in the coffee?
