Calamity Chris Breaks Cover
Huhne’s silence has been laughably broken:
“All I want to say is simply that these allegations are simply incorrect. They have been made before and they have been shown to be untrue. And I very much welcome the referral to the police as it will draw a line under the matter. I don’t want to say any more than that. I think the police can get to the bottom of this.”
Straight out of the Labour spin book… Huhne’s phone-call to his wife proves how unwelcome this new, not old, story is. A shifty, quiet, low key, yet ultimately calm denial with no reference to the wife. Huhne ran away from further questions, but has finally broken cover. His frown didn’t look very welcoming.
He will be gone by the end of the week!
He’s never been there
bungalow huhne – there not a lot upstairs
Otherwise it will be guido that explodes.
Terminate! terminate! TER-MIN-ATE!
Jeremy Thorpe managed to claw onto power between Oct 1975 & May 1976, doing the Liberal Party great harm after allegations of the bungled Norman Scott killing became public.
Let’s hope that Hulne manages to spread political septicemia throughout the Lib Dem party before he is finally burned off it with a cigarette…
If only Huhne’s wife had said that he had shot a dog….
Or put the cat in a wheelie bin.
True, but in those days the press were respectful and there were no blogs. The Today prog on Radio4 had Nick Robinson telling us this morning to move on as there is no story. Therefore, like DSK, he’s toast
Does truth really exist, though?
So when Huhne goes, what word are going to use to replace hoon/huhne?
….are we going to use….
Doh.
Bercow?
Slaggy
IS Hughes close enough?
Far too close!
he’s going down, he’s going down – huhne is going down….
Cable…as in “I was just in trap 2, laying a cable…I’d give it ten minutes…”
A Vaz.
Cuhnt?
I welcome the police investigation – the allegations are old and incorrect
Well he would say that wouldn’t he?
Dear Mandy Rice-Davies. Probably the best and most used quote ever….probably…
Oh come on GF… I even spent it correctly…
Said to dear old Lord Denning if my memory serves me well.
I welcome all investigations in to the Iraq War. All and any allegations against me are old and incorrect.
Yeah – thanks, Laura K. But he kinda *did* refuse to answer the straight question you asked of whether he had asked anyone to take points for him. Didn’t dwell on that for too long in your report, did ya now?
I’d still do you though, so don’t worry your pretty little head too much.
I love how the allegations are “old and incorrect”.
As opposed to “untrue”. I was under the impression the speed camera photos would clear this up once and for all. If he denies it categorically and the police confirms the photo is of him, fair enough.
The first time I saw the clip, it seemed to me that Huhne completely failed to enunciate the first syllable of the word “incorrect”.
The denial therefore looked even more surreal as it appeared open with the line “All I want to say, is simply that these allegations are simply correct.”
Chris Huhne will be found completely innocent of these false allegations, just as I was. The Grand Lodge is once again looking after things.
For Christ sake Mike, keep it quiet, or you will blow our cover.
Chris Huhne is ‘old and incorrect’
Shouldn’t that be, ” A Huhne tells me he welcomes the police investigation and that allegations are old and incorrect.”
Smug lying psychopathic cowardly mendacious insufferable backstabbing untrustworthy caaahnts, the lot of them.

If Huhne is worried it means that there is more substance to the allegations than the unprovable verbal claim and counterclaim of a divorced husband and wife, which most reasonable courts would dismiss.
We are looking at the probability that there is incontrovertible evidence that the person who took the points was somewhere else at the time of the offence, and couldn’t possibly have been driving.
It just needs one person to come forward saying “Oh, yeah, his wife was at that conference at that time on that date….we went for coffee together.”
Then its porridge for breakfast, lunch and tea for you, Mr Huhne.
I trust Guido is following up with the organisers of said conference?
What time did Ryan-Air flight land at Stansted from Strasbourg(Huhne was at European Parliament on day in question according to aides and took part in two votes on that day before returning to UK that evening as alleged by Sunday Times report yesterday) ? If that is proven to be the case then ……. Was camera on route from Stansted to Central London ?What time was camera tripped ? Allowing for getting off plane;through airport;pick-up car and drive off are the timings compatible ? Was car registered as passing through number plate recognition at airport ?(records probably wiped after 8 years) When did Ms Pryce leave conference ? Did she have the car ? If so where was it parked ? Are there any records to substaniate that fact(again after 8 years unlikely)Are the timings compatible with her driving to Stansted to pick up Huhne OR with him driving the car from Stansted ? Did anyone see either Huhne or Pryce either at the airport or elsewhere at the time of the alleged offence ?
Far too complicated for plod and not in the public interest.
“The person Huhne allegedly identified as the driver was at work in central London on the day in question and attended a high-profile conference.”

Unfortunately, records that might have been used in evidence just happen to have been destroyed recently.
If Huhne had been properly prosecuted for his expenses fiddling parliament would have avoided this embarassment … and there are many more protected thieves in the ranks who are embarassments-in-waiting

So the “rutting chimpanzee” has previous. Bang him up.

The Dominique Strauss-Kahn story is about the EMF, the euro and the future of liberal Europe – not about the claims of an uneducated and impressionable maid. The Huhne story is unimportant and will go away in a day or two.
Un-educated does not mean un-intellegent, or over-impressionable, just that they missed out on some schooling.
Even an un-educated person could recognise a person with no clothes on, even an king, and even a king of finance.
His head movements are saying they opposite to his verbal !
Ouch! He looks worried and he should be.
His body language and facial expressions, especially the constantly raised eye-brows, give Huhne away. He’s guilty.
I’ve often wandered what a polished turd looks like.
Shifty. Use of very precise words to obfuscate – “the allegations are incorrect” not “I didnt do it”
I would have expected the answer to the question he was asked to have been “No.” there’s a subtle difference between allegations that are ‘false’ and allegations that are ‘incorrect’!
Please can we be told exactly when and by whom these accusations have previously been shown to be incorrect – per the claim of Mr Huhne. I think we should be told.
What a Vaz
Ooooh, he wants to sort out that sloppy diction… a lack of a glottal stop on the word ‘incorrect’ and glossing over the n…. I heard ‘are simply correct’- Ooooh, it did make me giggle.
