as exclusively revealed by yours truly some months ago, that the cash for honours scandal, and the police investigation launched after a complaint from angus brendan mcneil, western isles m.p., would see arrests, pc plod has made its first arrest.

lord levy, a close confidant of PM tory bliar was arrested, and bailed pending further enquiries.

stay tuned dear readers, the house of cards is going to tumble.

the special sheer affrontery award goes to the new labour non-entity who complained about the police arresting someone without charge - this from a political party that tried to introduce legislation where someone could be detained for 90 days with charge!!

this story is going to run and run

Aren't other political parties also under police investigation ?

Yes, the old tories are also under investigation, but none of their officials have been arrested.

The Labour government cannot sell it to the public to arrest the Tory officials first ..... 😉

I'd imagine that the offences committed by labour fundraisers will be recent, while those of the tories will be from when they were last in power.
So, I suppose they'll investigate recent cases first.

The point is, though, that this sort of crap was almost expected from the tories - they are the party of big business. When their cabinet ministers resigned, they went straight to the boardrooms.

The labour party came to power promising to end all this, yet they seem to be up to their neck in it.
