Leaving it 'til the last minute before losing his bottle. Useless man.

wow - what a surprise
Now then, it's a race between Sandie....and Fairburn....and the little man is in........yeees he's in.

I, just like those Castleford supporters felt that the ball should have gone to David Plange but he put the bit betwen his teeth...and it was a try

Kevin Ward - best player I have ever seen

The real Mick Gledhill is what you see on here, a Bradford fan ........, but deep down knows that Bradford are just not good enough to challenge the likes of Leeds & St Helens.

The real surprise is that the coalition didn't arrange for the CPS to drop the case.

Yes, but, in a coalition, either Labour or Tory would need to "look after" the Libdem MP's. Let's face it, it was only the minnows from all three parties that were prosecuted over the expenses scandal.

I seem to recall that Huhne stood against Clegg for the Libdem leadership.

Surely not the same Tony Blair who now has his own foundation that negotiates deals in the Middle East, earns millions and pays a relatively small amount of tax?

This could also earn him a bad reputation with the British population. However, that could never happen whilst he is married to the really cute altruistic Cherie ... the public will always love her.

Resigning his seat?

No wonder the other politicians don't like him.

As Mr Huhne has pleaded guilty, does that mean we will not get to hear Bruce Forsyth testify in the case.
Nice to see you, to see you nice. What do points make? Pryces, Priz Huhne.

Sad to see how his affair affected his family. The texts are not good reading.

Though wifey might be regretting the revenge plan soon...
With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

The texts from his son are pretty strong stuff.

Serious question:

This offence happened ten years ago.

Is it a civil offence and, if so, is there a statute of limitation that sets a time limit on how long, following the offence, a prosecution can be brought?

Quick google: England & Wales law has no statute of limitations. Specific Acts may have limitations but there's no universal statute.

Pretty sure perverting the course of justice is a criminal offence.

And a serious one.

He's going to jail.

The daft thing is, had he just admitted it the original offence at the time he'd have been banned for a while and have been back on the road long, long ago.

The man is clearly an idiot.
