Vicky Pryce’s trial has begun and furious phone-calls between her and her ex-husband are being played to the jury. One line has got a lot of attention. When hearing from Huhne that he had not broken up with his current lover; his former bi-sexual press officer Carina Trimingham, Pryce responded:
“I am so pleased that you are still with that man of yours.”

Andrew Pierce on Ed Balls…
“Porky Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls sweet-talked guests at a fund-raising dinner by saying if he wasn’t a politician, he would be a chef. That’s not surprising, since he was accused of cooking the Treasury books when he was Gordon Brown’s boot boy.”
Bloody foreigners, coming over here taking all our twitter followers
This is Y Huhne supports Homo weddings
But did you see Peter Sellers in What’s New Pussycat?
Sometimes the most revealing comments are those that remain unspoken. In 2011, David Cameron boldly announced to the Tory conference that he would legalise same-sex marriage “because I am a Conservative”, saying all relationships deserved support.
Today, he is nowhere to be seen or heard on the issue. At no point, as the row over gay marriage reached its height in recent days, has Mr Cameron said anything in public about why he supports the reforms. The Bill, which is being debated in the Commons for the first time today, was not discussed at Cabinet. Even the Prime Minister’s official spokesman would not repeat the reasons why the government believes this reform is necessary.
Mr Cameron will not be on the front bench for the start of the debate and may well not attend at all. He has a “very active day” of meetings and appointments, Downing Street said. But he will vote, we are told.
So why the silence? Either Mr Cameron has got cold feet and no longer believes in the Bill (in which case, stay tuned for the most sensational U-turn of recent years), or he is desperate to dodge what has become a PR disaster for his party.
His bold promise at the Conservative conference in Manchester was seen as a potent sign of his determination to show how far the Tory party had changed. As the anger and division have grown ever since, it seems to have had exactly the opposite effect.

Like the Pleb gate issue, I like to ‘lie low’ and not get involved.
Pip pip
You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the air
But I tell you once and once again, Dave Cameron’s not there!
According to Peter Bone Conservative MP for Kettering(probably at prompting of “Mrs Bone”)on BBC Daily Politics….Cameron was asked specifically 2 days before 2010 Election whether he had any intention of bringing forward legislation for Gay Marriage and replied that he categorically had not and that his supporters had his “Cast-Iron” Guarantee to that effect…….Peter Bone contend therefore that Cameron has no electoral mandate either in the country or the party for such legislation and that Cameron should hold a referendum on the issue so that public opinion can be properly guaged and not rely on opinion polls…
Whilst I agree with Bone on this issue, he did look at fucking mess on the Daily Politics.
Was he out on the razzle last night?
Mr Bone is MP for Wellingborough. Mr Hollobone serves us well
You may also find that he is in fact kowtowing to his European masters
http://www.eureferendum.com/blogview.aspx?blogno=83592
When he said he wanted to renegotiate our position I didn’t think he meant over a barrel with our trousers around our ankles!
Sumo weddings?
Lets cost up what the taxpayer has had to pay for all this.
No wonder the Greek economy is in such a mess if this is how a Greek woman divorces.
She was married to someone before.
but not any more. thats divorce for you.
She’s doing Dennis McShane at the mo. No, really.
Ms Trimingham was in a civil partnership before, what an example our MPs set to us all.
Well I though the whole thing went swimmingly.
Richard the Third found in Council car park! Why is this news there are loads of Richard the thirds in our car park mostly left by dogs and Saturday night piss artists
Eric pickes just rose from the front bench to speak and four MPs fell off the other end
Trimingham looks like Richard III in that drawing.
without being unkind, you have to wonder why on earth he broke up his marriage for ms Trimingham, i mean, good grief!
+1
Stiff upper lip there?
It is times like this when one has to think about the story; about the boy who put his finger in a Dyke
“That man”.
A boy without a winkle, surely.
Good on yer Vicki.
The Eagle Brothers cured me
Get back to the Benidorm bar circuit bitch
I wonder if Huhne knew Jimmy Savile?
Jimmy complained to the police about him but they would not listen.
Is that Harold Bishop beside Carina?
Don’t go bashing the Bishop now! (Although that’s pretty much what Chris will have to be doing for the foreseeable future, assuming Bubba will be satisfied with that act alone!)
However, a Liberal Democrat spokesman said Mr Huhne is unlikely to face official censure from the party as there is “nothing precluding” members having criminal convictions. Telegraph
I thought it was a condition of entry.
Ideal leadership material
He should join a party that doesn’t care about your past.
A ladyboy has just risen in the house to support gay marriage.
And a convincing one at that. Does anyone know who the BackScuttler of the day is yet though, and will he have gifted £90,000.00 to his friend/landlord as seems to be the norm in these enlightened days?
Ive got backscuttler of the day down to 200 possibilities.
Is a backscutter the same as one of those backsliders who open the door to Sodom that the Puritans were always complaining about?
Also, can anyone explain if Mr/Mrs/Ms Trimington is a Lesbian, a Tranny, a changeling, a Tweeny, a male homosexual or a Lib-Dem?
Has anybody got Rosie’s number => ???
Webster?
42, 39, 56.
You could say she’s got it all.
Kill Bill
What happened to that person who is a barrister and one of England’s earliest black female Recorders? Do we have to wait two years here as well?
She was seen in boots buying skin bleach.
Whta was her connection to Vicky Price ? wasnt there a court case featuring the pair of them a few weeks ago ?
No it was all just a dream. Move along please, nothing to see here.
Do you mean the Scotch one who went to the UN?
I support gay marriage.
Might as well..its going to pass voting easily.
But..I’m threatening not too.
See what the whips are offering. I see the committee on the dismantlement of military shipping is being held in land locked Switzerland this year. A little chairmanship and a ski lift pass might sway me into the pro ‘mo camp.
Is Gay Bill in here?
They’ve got one or two big lakes !
I can assure you, there’s nothing gay about marriage.
Marriage is a wonderful institution, but who wants to live in an institution?
Rumors that I as a child I was persuaded to dress up in a fairy costume are untrue.
I was over the age of consent.

Is this better or worst than Moore’s comments the other day ?
Would be very interesting indeed to see what exactly happened during their divorce, however those records are sealed and the court itself would have been in camera if a trial happened.
Pryce and duress ? Pull the other one.
Huhne though is a prize mong, but she is the brains and very likely the one who caused the real damage to UK competitiveness. Why we were using Greek economic advisers is in hindsight lunacy.
I have only followed the detail so closely, there is a limit to how much you want to trawl these odd people’s lives, but it is not quite clear whether Huhne filled out the forms, signed them and sent them off (at one extreme) and she begged that she should take them for him (at the other faintly ridiculous end.)
No doubt we shall hear how it happened in the evidence but I could see a point on this long scale where such a plea could just, at a pinch, wind behind you, cycling down hill, be acceptable.
Point of order.
Are you eligible for UK jury duty?
Electoral Roll you are looking for, madam.
The most credible explanation is that it was a mutually agreed decision. However, that her character appears to be of a certain persuasion (evidenced prior to today) does call into question her real motivation for agreeing.
Quite a hold you then have over the other.
The divorce details are relevant as they will likely help complete the picture of the relationship and how it had deteriorated.
Personally feel nothing either way for these two.
More interested to see if justice is going to be perverted in the course of correcting a perversion of justice.
what do you mean”of a certain persuasion “?
Vicky Price may well have agreed to take the points to avoid the tedious business of driving him everywhere for three months or more. I suppose that his points will now be applied to his licence but he will have it back by the time he leaves jail. But will an insurance company want to cover him after this?
WTF did Vicky Pryce, who’s supposed to be “clever”, communicate with jounalists via email. Emails can’t be deleted – there’s far too many copies on too many servers – it’s the Internet, dear.
In the heat of the moment mistakes happen.
Huhne is ‘clever’ : But look at the mistakes he has made.
None of this lot are as clever as they think they are.
The political class in this country are corrupt the Huhne case,McShane,the countless numbers of both Houses of Parliament fiddling resulting in at least 8 serving prison terms for theft and fraud et al.Now they are debating whether to sanctify buggery through the the Gay Marriage bill which was not in any Manifesto at the last election and is against the wishes of the vast majority of this country.We are a nation in economic,political,social and moral decline gawd helpus.
Pleb
fancy a bunk up at Elm House? for old times?
Right on
I’ve got a pleb t shirt.
I’ll see your pleb and raise you a Transvision Vamp.
Just how do they have recordings of these calls? Men in Black?
They can now tell what Richard III had for breakfast on his 21st birthday.
“That man of yours”??????
Hasn’t Ms Pryce now taken up with Macshame- Yet another political lowlife?
All the inmates on death row are taken, what else is a girl to do?
Yes: Hardly the best pedigree that Macshame character.
Any B!lls coming up for mixed open prisons ?
Seems like John Mann the only honorable and honest Labour MP left in the house. Final duties may be to switch the lights off.
I am not a wanker!
If you say so I will sue you.
Sue?
I refer you to the reply given in Arkell v Pressdram.
I will not be coming out today as it is raining.
It will be interesting to see if McMental is in the Lobby tonight my guess is that he will be.
Wrap up warmly and get a beard
Oh you already have one
Tell me he’s lazy, tell me he’s slow,
Tell me I’m crazy (maybe I know)
Can’t help lovin’ dat man of mine.
Have you ever tried balling the jack?
You have to think of the future.
If a male heir to the throne marries a male, could their surrogate offspring be a Queen, if they hadn’t married?
THAT is the quickest way I can think of to turn this benighted country into a republic overnight.
Not just the Monarch. If members of the Upper House are listed in Burke’s Queerage and Lord Poofy marries his coachman or bootboy, what happens to titles of nobility?
Is the spouse of a Duke to be called Ducky? A Baron’s conjugal partner to be Baronette? An Earl’s female wife is a Countess, so some spelling alteration there.
My God, they are all MAD!
This is the case against.
To support her claim of coercion one foresees tales of woe, strife, emotional abuse and maybe a few threats.
Reality sees this as a long term set up to gain control of Huhne.
Who exactly suggested she take the points in the first place ?
Huhne has been silent on that so far.
Well, he didn’t do it for The Birds.
“Huhne has been silent on that so far”
Huhne changed his plea to guilty and subsequently lost a little credibility.
He admitted guilt to perverting the course of justice.
That is a two way street in this case.
The question which is very relevant now, is did he suggest this, or did she ?
I agree. But, by changing his plea he diminishes his claim to honesty and consistency. Important when judging his evidence.
Think of it this way.
If he had maintained his not guilty plea, with that text message allegedly from his son, what would have happened in the trial ?
His defense would have had to cross examine his son, possibly forcing his son into a position of implicating himself as being an accessory to this long running crime and then being subject to prosecution.
If that extreme had not happen, pitting father against son in a court of law would have done neither any favors longterm.
Huhne did the right thing here by his family, despite the way it is painted by some. He doesn’t care about his own credibility anymore as it is not relevant. He does care about his son and in the future having a relationship and likely being a grandfather.
It’s good that Huhne is out of public life now, but for him life goes on beyond the case.
Where would you be if J C had married a woman?
Plus, there was Kane and Abel.
So where did you come from?
Sign the form, bitch, or ya’ll get what’s comin’ to ya.
YES
I am now Steward and Bailiff of the Three Hundreds of Chiltern
A promotion !!!
Does that mean you can build a windfarm here to power the HS2?
Chris.
Purely rhetorical this but ” have you stopped beating your wife?”
Call that a wife?
Thats me douche bag
Bit fucking much coming from a fucking minger like Pryce.
Well she has dropped 5 sprogs. How many has the Trimmingham Manwoman had?
Mingingham is no fucking oil painting, granted, but how on earth did he manage to fuck Pryce five times? Definitely a two-fucking-bagger if ever I saw one.
She is quite attractive when seen out of the dock ! 100% better than the triminghan person !
C’mon she looks like one of the Gremlins. The ones in the sequel in the office building.
She has intelligence, wit and a good income. On the other hand she is allegedly a criminal.
A three-bagger, surely. You would need one to throw up in afterwards.
Carina, we know its you !
“sheik” please post a pic of yourself, you must be a stunna !
Women fall for my wit, charm and outright fucking charisma.
Also, I have a fucking massive dick.
Unlike Andrew Marr, I’m not someone who can always fall back on his fucking good looks.
CH only managed three fucks.
Some other poor tw*t is responsible for her first two.
She’s 60 now. No doubt she was somewhat more attractive in earlier years.
She makes a lovely moussaka
What do you say to a greek woman with 2 black eyes?
Nothing, you have told her twice already
What did the Tee Shirt say that the greek lady with 2 black eyes was wearing?
Slow learner
The Bill is discriminatory because same-sex couples will be able to have a civil partnership or get married, but different-sex couples will only be able to get married.
The Homosexuals don’t have to consummate their wedding either.
What is increasingly obvious is that MPs are rushing through a flawed law just as they did with hunting with hounds and all those knee jerk anti terror laws.
Do they not learn anything?
I was responsible for a new swear-word being entered into the OED.
Are the prosecution calling him to the witness box?
How come the EU won a peace prize when it wants to form an Army?
How did Nobama when he is murdering people around the world with drones ?
I can see where they are coming from.
Follow the links mate. They awarded it to themselves.
But I think they are going to need their own army when the peasants throughout the EU countries revolt in their millions in the not too distant future. The way Dave is going though we won’t have much to contribute apart from a Land Rover two.
Nigel nobody cares what you think, you deluded little man !
Beware of Greeks bearing grudges !
The Man woman that Huhne married should be charged with conspiracy, trouble is Holloway would be heaven to her
Loads of diesel dykes
What is a diesel dyke? Is it as in the Liverpudlian: ” As I’m here, diesel do….”
Not sure, could be one that runs on unleaded ?
There actually IS a sexual paraphilia (a ten-quid word for what used to be called a “fetish”) of men desiring facially-less-than-femininely-attractive-looking women. Apparently Huhne went from a not-so-facially-femininely-attractive-looking woman, to one even less so. It is a bit like going from Laura San Giacomo (but not with the same figure) to Miranda Hart (more closely approximating the original). But it really is pot-and-kettle, if we are being honest.
Fucking idiot
Apologies, I meant Cameron not Huhne no, on second thoughts – both.
Why do Lib Dem scandals always involve a dog? Woof, woof, aargh
