   I didn't realise he had a personalised number plate: H11HNE

   If I was a judge, that would double the sentence...

   Not my flavour of politician, but I do feel sorry for him. He tried to pull a naughty stunt to cover up a speeding fin and prevent bad publicity; the transcripts of his messages to his angry estranged son clearly show the sadness of a father as he tried to keep in contact, and I suspect looking back through history we would have been denied some great figures of high achievement if they were held to the same media glare for every indiscretion- the Duke of Wellington was a whoring aristocrat who disdained those of a lower class, and who may or may not have fled a battlefield as a young officer...but a pretty good general as it turned out.

   The original 'indiscretion' was a traffic violation, sure enough... but he lied - and kept on lying - when he should have owned up. He was still denying he'd done anything wrong a week ago. He only 'fessed up at the last minute, when he realised he couldn't stop the trial. He'll be hit with big legal expenses, plus prison sentence... and I can't say I feel sorry for him...

   if he sells that, it will be a brave (or very satirical) soul that buys it.

   Why did some people rate him highly as a politician? He may have been ruthless and ambitious (both essential for political success) but he was also irrational, inconsistent and a bit thick.

   He was the dickhead who, for six months, did nothing at all about the ludicously over-generous subsidy on solar panels, and then suddenly nearly destroyed the solar panel industry by trying to halve the subsidy almost overnight and even before his consultation process was due to report.

   He was an arrogant, incompetent twat. Good riddance.

   Maybe he should have had AR5E?

   I think those personalised number plates provide an important public service.
   It tells you all you need to know about a person without having to engage them in conversation
