PM's Political Secretary Interviewed by Police

Inspector Yates's Cash for Peerages Inquiry shows no sign of slowing down. I hear that the Prime Minister's Political Secretary John McTernan was interviewed yesterday over gaps in an email chain. He was, unlike the Prime Minister, interviewed under caution.

Would that be the same John McTernan who is being sent by Labour to Siberia, I mean Scotland, to run the gulags, I mean campaign there? After the glorious job the Scottish Comrades made of keeping the arms' dealers' lobbyist and anti-cluster bomb campaigner Willie Rennie out of parliament?

The article states that Blair himself could now be re-interviewed under caution

You have good sources Iain. Gaps in an e-mail chain? Sounds like corroborative evidence and/or arm-twisting material. Smells like the smoking gun has already been found.

..."could now be re-interviewed under caution."

Or alternatively, could now be totally absolved. Yet another example of lard-arsed journalists making up stories over their 'cold turkey'and the gullible lapping it up.

Now that would be another first for Blair - if it were to happen that is. Anything almost could happen after all. the Rozzers could go back and interview Lady Thatcher though she might plead the Pinochet Amendment, they could question Lord Major, or could question HRH Betty. But is it really likely? Still, if it did come to pass it would be a more reliable fact than the one about his being the only PM ever to be interviewed by police about anything. Almost certainly poppycock that. He asserts with no proof or intention of seeking same!!

Iain,

You must feel quite chuffed that labour appears to have attack dogs monitoring your Blog and anonymously commenting with the tone of well drilled labour spinmeisters. You and Guido are certainly rattling the weasels and stoats that form the NuLab hardcore.
