The embarrassment of Jacqui Smith

I imhttp://benjaminwmartin.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/jacqui_smith_07052.jpgagine it’s the spare room tonight for the shamed husband of Home Secretary Jacqui Smith who was forced into making a humiliating apology for heaping huge embarrassment on his wife over a bungled expenses claim which included two porno films he watched while she was out.

She ‘mistakenly’ submitted an £67 MPs expenses claim which included five pay-per-view films, including the two adult movies which were viewed at her family home in her Redditch constituency, which she has since repaid.

Surely as her parliamentary aide, as well as her nearest and dearest, Richard Timney would have wanted to ensure that there were no financial discrepencies with her expenses, a hot topic at the moment as she is being investigated over the use of her second homes allowance.

And is her husband genuinely sorry for the embarrassment he caused his wife, or is it the fact that the whole world now knows that he watches porno movies on his own, and that this information is under public scrutiny too?

My MEP Robert Sturdy is a key international trade spokesman and in this video he explains why we need to increase free trade across borders globally and do away with protectionism to help recover from the recession. Is that what G20 world leaders will have in mind when they meet this week?
