So… when are we going to get some conclusions?

I think now is the time to quote a quote on my old blog:

3. I think I’ll just quote Tony Wright here: “And finally, the police said whatever the outcome of this investigation they’d be very happy to share the lessons of it with us and to do that in public evidence session“.

This was back in July, back when it was also indicated that said investigation would be over by September or so. I’ve been sort-of looking forward to seeing what the lessons of the investigation are since then, and think it’s a shame that we’re now going to have to wait until the New Year to find out.

If these lessons involve pointing out serious flaws in the way both the honours system, and the House of Lords in general, operate, then these lessons really couldn’t come soon enough, could they?

Oh well. Only a few months to go. Again. 

In other news, the Dear Leader was interviewed by the police as, presumably, a witness of sorts today.

Michael Howard

There are reports that Howard was interviewed by the police over the whole cash-for-peerages mess. If true, a positive sign that the investigation isn’t going down partisan lines.

Btw, I seem to remember the police saying that evidence gathered and lessons learned would be made public at some point?
