Chris Huhne gets away with it, is what the papers should say, but what actually is happening is the same old dirty dealing that we should expect from our political class (Hey they call us an underclass so lets call them the political class)
The nearest I can figure it is this, someone in the CPS has been looking to move into Politics, its the money you see, and at a stretch if you want to get into politics you need a political person to give you the "leg up" or in some cases the leg over.
Now, it would not be a good move to be seen putting a politician up on charges, good case or not, your making an enemy and that is not what this person wants, so the goal is to quietly let it all slide until the case can be dropped and Chris Huhne's support can be won, with a little help from my friends as the song goes.
Now being an outsider I still have problems with the fact that corruption here causes such a big problem, it happens everyone knows it happens, so what is the big deal.
It put it simply, you are paying someone to do something for you, that is work, not corruption. I need planning permission, I pay the planning guy, he gives me permission, simple.
Now you might say that the planning guy is being paid to do his job, so being paid by me is wrong, but no he isn't. As far as I can tell, most Englishmen believe their salary is just to make them turn up to work, not actually do anything (the English are lazy lets face it, they only do long hours because of the overtime, or because they are so crap at what they do they need 10 hours to do what is an 8 hour job, which leads us to why unions are so powerful here)
So, that planning guy is just scraping by, doing as little as possible, so when gets some work, planning permission is put to him, they means he might have to work a little more and this he resents, so he will make sure it will take as long as possible, why should he try and deal with this, why should he progress this? I mean really. That would be his attitude, because you are, in his eyes, forcing him to do something, and this no one likes.
Now, you go to that same planning guy, pass him the planning application, and suggest to him that he might make a few 'extra quid' and you will have never seen someone work harder.
The same goes for politicians, your paying them fine, thank you, but to expect them to work without any extras, what are you nuts?
Lets face it, if you want your doctor to sign your passport, and he gave birth to you, it is still going to cost you £20, why? Because, it is work, and pen to paper for a doctor, for someone he knows and has treated for years, well, I mean really, you can not just go out and sign things, so it costs you.
The English are Lazy, Fact.
Chris Huhne Will get away with it, this is another fact.
Remember this is a whisper, so don't go shouting it aloud!
