Peter Hain

Private Eye has some worthwhile pieces on Peter Hain, I suggest you get hold of Lord Gnome's organ and have a read. One item that I will repeat is a quote from Peter Hain whilst he was Leader of the House of Commons, he sad this on 26 June 2003 "It is of the greatest importance that the conduct of Members of the House meets, and is seen to meet, the high standards expected by the Wicks committee [on standards in public life], and also by our constituents. Lapses, however rare, are very damaging to public confidence in the House and in our parliamentary democracy. If lapses occur, and are not seen to be tackled with sufficient rigour, the effect is many times worse."

I'll repeat that last sentence "If lapses occur, and are not seen to be tackled with sufficient rigour, the effect is many times worse." Come on then, authorities, Peter wants you to investigate with "sufficient rigour", don't let him down.
