According to Hazel Blears, Nu Labour's cross between a chipmunk and a shrill harpy, the cash-for-peerages saga is having a "corrosive effect" by "going on for months and months" (link). At first it might look like Blears has realised that her boss clinging to power in the face of a criminal investigation is bad for the country. But no - if you study her comments a bit more you get to the crucial phrase:
"I want the investigation to be brought to a conclusion as quickly as possible."
In other words, please stop investigating us you nasty policemen. My Tony has done nothing wrong, I know because he said so and he would never ever lie.
Of course the investigation could end very soon. Although perhaps not in the way Nu Labour would like...

Erm, there's no real comment policy other than "don't libel anyone" and "don't use the comment section to try to sell your products". If you do either, I will delete the comments without warning. Otherwise, you can pretty much write what you want.
