With eye-watering audacity Elliot Morley has whined to his local paper that he has been treated unfairly, and most outrageously said he wants to keep his resettlement grant:

“I think withholding the resettlement goes against natural justice. In effect it turns common law around, which judges me guilty until proven innocent. It is one of the many ways I have not been treated fairly. I would point out I have repaid in full and do not owe any money in relation to expenses.”

Not sure Mr Morley quite gets it yet.
