Consider an hypothetical situation.

You were in a country hotel and happen to notice the (married)guy in charge of your local planning dept snogging a woman(who you also know to be married)they then leave and get in the lift to the rooms. You have your phone with you and cop the lot on it.

You also happen to have an acre of land which you want to develop, but you keep getting turned down.

Get my drift?

Affairs are one of the commonest reasons for blackmail. I am no way suggesting that has happened with JP, because I am sure it hasn't.

You must admit though, he has put himself in a very compromising position, which, I am sure, someone would exploit if they could.
Agreed it could lead to blackmail but if opinions apart from the moral were that it didn't affect his decision making ability in his job then there would be no problem.

I just wonder how many baying for his blood have had indiscretions themselves in their lives? double standards come to mind.

To be honest, I don't think anyone is calling for him to resign, are they. These are different times, rightly or wrongly, from when Prescott and his ilk were looking for scalps from the David Mellors and Cecil Parkinsons of this world. However, it does paint a bad picture for several reasons...

Firstly, judgement. Out here in the real world, people who are tempted into having affairs are prevented by several things - The major one is possibly still morality, but beyond that they have to make a judgement of how likely they are to get caught, and the consequences of getting caught. For someone like JP, the answer to those final two are both high, but he still went ahead anyway, which is a bit worrying that the needs of 'little John' still take precedence in his head over any common sense.

Secondly, it just adds to the picture of the Labour party as being two-faced hypocrites - This is exactly the sort of behaviour they promised to be a refreshing change from when they came in. I voted for them, and have never been so disappointed with anything as I have been with the promising new world that seemed imminent back in May 1997.

And finally, I've heard it said, if the person closest to him, his wife, can't trust him, why should we. Is it really too much to expect our leaders to act honourably ?

Sorry if I sound a bit 'high-horsey' here, but it is the first one of the above that really bugs me - the inability to weigh up the risks and benefits of giving your secretary one for a man in his position.

I agree with these sentiments: If he is prepared to defile an oath he made to his wife and betray his family what is he prepared to do to us that he doesn't even know? Furthermore, the whole thing should be investigated as there are questions which need answering:

Did the woman get her job because she was having an affair with JP?
Did she have the affair to protect her job (therefore a victim of coercion)?

Yes we are all just human and people make mistakes but the the same one for two years? That is not a blip.

The problem is Kendor, it let the whole Labour supporters and their MP's down which they could do without. Over the years the MP's never learn do they?

This is a quote from J Prescott in 1996: " It's about right and wrong. We are the party of principle. We will earn the trust of the British people. We've had enough lies. Enough sleaze."

I'm sick and tired of them all.
