Price and Huhne –8 months fair or not??

For lying,cheating whilst in positions of power. They both got 8 months but i daresay that will be reduced.

How true!!:dev2: I was wondering if, when asked by the warder for his order, he asked for a bacon sarnie – with well crisped bacon, of course.

Ahhh but Charlie, how do you know it was Miss Trimingham? These days it could of quite possibly have been Miss Triminghorse…

She could have been in disguise and not who you thought. Remember never judge a book by it’s covering..

Oh dear!!:diablo:

Chris Huhne’s lover gets parking fine on prison visit

A motoring offence caused Chris Huhne’s spectacular fall from grace, but this seemed to slip the mind of his lover Carina Trimingham as she visited him in prison for the first time today.

By Hayley Dixon

2:23PM GMT 13 Mar 2013

Miss Trimingham parked her Toyota Prius in a Permit Holders Only bay outside Wandsworth Prison, in south London, was issued with a parking ticket as she spent several hours inside.

She now faces a fine of up to Β£110, although it will be halved if she chooses to admit the offence and pay up straight away.

The disgraced former Cabinet Minister and his ex-wife Vicky Pryce, 60, were both jailed for eight months on Monday for perverting the course of justice over a decade old speeding offence.

Miss Trimingham made the visit after it was claimed that Huhne had been bullied and humiliated, and mocked by a warder who called him to breakfast shouting β€œOrder! Order!”

Well humour me – either you “agree that ALL out M.Ps tend to do their best,” or that “649. give or take the odd few” are like Huhne. Can’t be both, can it?;):)

I hadn’t realised that Chris Huhne worked as a journalist for the Guardian. That explains almost everything.

He wasn’t liked by them either…

…Huhne continued to write for the Guardian and then the Independent — earning a reputation for being despised by his colleagues for his ruthless ambition and utter lack of charm, warmth or decency. When he first ran for parliament in 1983, his election campaign was sabotaged by some of his colleagues at the Guardian — a fact gleefully reported by Britain’s Private Eye magazine…

Although they had to hide his misdeeds to protect tbemselves…

In the early 1980s, while working for The Guardian newspaper, Huhne had lied and fabricated details in a story that maligned several people and a major organization. His purpose was simple. To advance his career by appearing to break what appeared on the surface to be a juicy scandal. But the facts didn’t remotely support the story Huhne had pre-sold his editor. So — like any Jayson Blair in a hurry –Huhne simply distorted the facts to suit the narrative in his story pitch. The organization, the maligned people and many other luminaries protested the lies in Huhne’s fabrication to The Guardian.

But the Guardian didn’t want to admit that its staff member was a flagrant liar and that it had been duped by its rising reporter. The exposure of Huhne’s opportunistic mendacity and tissue of odious lies was swept under the carpet. So at a point when Huhne could have been exposed for who and what he really was, he was instead coddled and protected. Which is perhaps why to this day the Guardian continues to print sympathetic pieces about the now jailed felon who once worked for the paper.

The German word huhne means a live chicken. When do you think he’ll be ready for plucking?

I see in one of todays papers that the inmates are giving him a hard time. Even the warders are saying, “Would the right honourable gentleman, please go to”……Even they are taking the PI** out of him.
Bet he never bends down to pick up the soap in the showers when he drops it..:D

With the proviso that “it’s in the papers” none of it is suprising and no doubt there will be worse to come!!:diablo:

Do you remember the classic Porridge and those episodes in which the judge who sent Fletcher down ended up in the same nick. He was treated suprisingly well……
