Tom Harris bemoans the public’s attitude to politicians…
“Mr Oborne echoes the lazy, anti-politics whine we hear so often these days, all based on the absurd notion that politicians were once loved and only fell out of public favour during the expenses scandal. He should take a walk to the Strangers’ Bar. But not to sup with the patrons he seems to despise so much, dearie me, no; he should instead look at the paintings on the corridor outside the bar, which depict the devastating fire which consumed most of the Palace in 1834. And he should reflect on the fact that on that dramatic night, as the Commons went up in flames, a crowd gathered on the South Bank to clap and cheer.”
” Evans, dear boy, Evans “
Nice.
You ██████, Fawkes !
what exactly are the reporting restrictions
radio 4 seemed able to carry the story today

I have been charged with perverting the course of Iraq. I have asked for numerous similar offences related to the United Kingdom to be taken into account.
Lift deporting restrictions too.
be liar acted According to his sun sign, though there is life beyond it.
be liar did his duty to his marriage.
be liar by passing fearlessly through the dark world of desire has elevated himself.
it is journey alright.
I want to read about this k.unt getting his neck stretched every day during the trial.
Why does he think he can hide justice being done (that is of course if the soft bastard judges do their job).
The Egyptians have set a precedent with burning down government offices housing those who would reimpose dictatorship by force. Do you think they may have a spare box of matches or the odd flare or two in the cupboard?
Whos driving this story Guido ?
About feffing time – there can be no justification for not allowing the public to gloat at & endlessly enjoy Huhnes misfortune.
Agreed.
+1
It may give a bigger boost to GDP than the Olympics as thousands of toothless old hags purchase knitting paraphernalia
Don’t be rude sonny or you may find one very sharp No 9 needle jabbed up your fundament.
Count me in please,Guido.
How could you hate this boy? Just look at him, he’s funny and adorable
A spokesman for Mr Morgan said ” Mr Morgan sends his best wishes to Chris whose appearance in Court next week is something he is still working hard to avoid himself but he does want to make it clear he has not had sex with Miss Trimmingham!”
For justice to be done it must be seen to be done as someone has just said on a previous thread.
and t’were well that he is done before he does it unto others
its showbizz!
Is one to presume that it was felt this case was not suitable to enjoy the same levels of treatment as others.
If it fails, can’t wait to see the hoops such as the BBC will go through to report (not) this?
‘A man, Mr. H, accused of…’
why on earth are there reporting restrictions on this ?
one of them is lying and either one or both was attempting to pervert the course of justice.
Anyone know whether it was the defence or the prosecution who applied for the reporting restriction?
Prosecution, but I have no idea why.
Chris Huhne didn’t want a trainset for Christmas, cos he knew that it would have 3 points.
Not only must Justice be done; it must also be seen to be done.
████ off.
Not if you’re a LibDem ‘big beast’.
… and for our mutual pleasure…

yeah but they refer only to alledged speeding offenses which is not what he’s up for
same old BBC. Had this been a Tory well..mmmmm
A bit off an off day for the Beeb as they were mostly pre-occupied with the demo in Paris for gay marriage.
But Guido, if you do this, it will increase the possibility of said person wriggling free on a technicality.
Would we get reporting restrictions if we were in Huhnes shoes ???
I think not …
Just asking … specifically in this case, but also generally what is the justification for a court sitting in secret?
To keep the plebs in the dark, otherwise they may get restless
In an open democracy, absolutely none irrespective of what anyone tells you.
Please provide evidence of any country that is an open democracy
Lilliput?
I wonder if all the press could make a point of asking any Liberal party leader at every opportunity whether any of their MPs are in court that week and whether there are reporting restrictions in force so they should not ask any more questions about them.
Make it follow them everywhere they appear.
We don’t agree with press freedom.
The public will only have access to information written by accredited journalists and passed by our “independent” panel.
In this country one gets the justice one can afford, that’s why I’m stuck in here. God bless the Jury and let’s all be very careful not to balls this up. C U soon C H.
In a case where the expectation is that the accused will wriggle free on some technicality or back-room deal, this case MUST be open and transparent to all.
If it was any of us plebs, it would have all been done and dusted years ago, regardless of what effect being found guilty would have had on our careers or family life.
The fact that the accused led a high profile political life should be of no concern.
They are supposed to set the standards (being honourable etc etc) so the authorities should come down on them even more severely. But that’s not how it works, is it?
You are dead right pal, his political life is of completely no concern to over 60 million of us.
If his ex-wife is found guilty then Hu**ne should by definition also be found guilty. Unless he can successfully argue that at the time he had been abducted by aliens and replaced by a cyborg – which is an argument that’s always on the cards really.
So, there you have it – Hu**ne not guilty, Vicky Whatsit guilty – and the British Justice system shining like a beacon to the world.
What is the point of becoming an MP if you cannot use the position to break the law, get more sex, pervert anything from teenagers to the course of justice, fiddle expenses and pile up favours that will result in shedloads of cash at some stage? Let’s face it, one can make more money selling the Big Issue or being a corrupt police constable than the derisory salary of Westminster Wallies.
Huhne’s biggest failing is that his horizons are so narrow and his standards so low.
With our wonderful Justice system letting off robbers, rapists, thieves etc, In today’s light sentencing, I’m sure said person will be granted all costs and £15000 compensation for his trouble, then he will most likely sue the Authorities for deformation of character.
Guilty as charged your Honor.

Perhaps he wants to lie in court and doesn’t want a member of the public to out him…
I feel my left testicle is safe.
Nick Clegg was on the same flight from bruxelles as Huhne. did Huhne give him lift ?
I have been reliably informed that the reporting restrictions are in place to protect the reputations of the Huhne legal defence team – who will be launching the ‘Chewbacca’ defence of last resort. Maybe.
Unions are the wealth creators.
They certainly create wealth for the Libor party.
I thought former Mrs Huhne was pleading marital coercion which implies she admits the offence occurred but she did it because her husband made her do it ?
