Germ- a mate of Tony Blair
He's GONE now.
What a prat.![]()
What gets me about these folk, who films them?
Not a lover of The Sun but this sort of sting is definitely in the public interest. Good riddance![]()
The Daily Hate Mail are rightly milking it
At least he's got some support! Now disgraced Lord Sewel is pictured wearing an orange BRA as secret footage shows him attacking David Cameron and other leading politicians

He's a Scottish peer but born in Hackney![]()
A big bag of evidence is taken away
I wonder what excuses he's made to his wife![]()
What Lord Sewel said about Cameron Blair and Johnson was spot on
No one was being abused
All were consenting adults
In private apartment
London is awash with cocaine
Yes i KNOW that drugs are illegal and so is going over 30 mph in a built up area
and i am sure all of you have done that before..................
I think the old goat deserves a medal for that performance being 69 years old
I wonder how much The Sun paid these hookers to video this setup![]()

Lord Sewel, chairman of committees (responsible for overseeing standards of behaviour among peers), effectively says it's ok if you don't get caught and then if you do get caught use the old school playground excuse that all the other boys do it.
Typical Labour hypocrite, do as I say and not as I do![]()
I would imagine most of them are at it and this poor old fool only got caught because he was setup by The Sun
When it comes to hookers and drugs what party the MP happens to belong to is immaterial
The whole house of Lords is just full of cronies so I never have my expectations high of these clowns
The fact that he was head of standards made it even more amusing![]()
I'm with London_Manila, this is frankly hilarious. It's a bit like the story a few years ago when John Prescott was caught (literally) with his pants down. People were expressing surprise that he actually got his end away, but in politicial circles, it was apparently common knowledge he was a serial adulterer. Well if HE can get it, there's hope for many more
Frankly though, I think it's well overdue the House of Lords was scrapped. Now that it isn't hereditary anymore (Which flawed as it was, at least introduced some non-political dimension, along with the often realised opportunity for some right duffers to get into politics with funny results). Just what is the point of them? A second chance for discredited politicians, a gravy train for retired has-beens. Just bloody scrap it. Either turn it into a debating hall for students, or have a second elected house for which members must be workers and must have no political affiliation whatsoever.
So am I... if I'm being honest.
So what if this silly old duffer's been caught with his pants around his ankles?? Let's face it ...... he won't be the first peer of the realm (of ANY political persuasion) to go "off the rails"
... and, you can bet, he most certainly won't be the last!
Quite frankly, when I first saw this portrayal- and the one pictured in the Daily Mail link below - it was ALL I could do to stop myself from bursting out laughing
... I was in stitches!
... well ... yes,
... the thought of a sixty~nine year old
performing a '69' manoeuvre on - not one, but two -
"chicks" ... each of 'em young enough to be his granddaughter ... does rather beggar belief - especially with a cocaine~filled tenner stuck up his left nostril!

He's just a lowlife.
I see no humour or anything remotely admirable in his behaviour.
Whilsthis sleazy antics are unbecoming of someone who's responsible for the oversight of Members' moral conduct
... such hypocrisy is rampant among Parliamentarians of ALL political persuasions as I've highlighted in #13 above.
Indeed, two things actually rankle me moreabout this whole sordid business ... and the first of those may be found roughly midway down the page of the subsequent link provided by Dedworth, in which ...
... Sewell bemoans the £200 daily allowance he receives for
attending the House of Lords - where, in keeping with his fellow peers, he probably snoreshis way through the mundane proceedings - as a mere "pittance", ffs!
Whilst the second relates to London Manila's question ...
... concerning the underhand tactics of The Sun newspaper in bribing the prostitutes to go along with its scheme to implant secret cameras in the guy's flat in order to discredit his reputation and thereby boost sales by sensationalising next morning's headlines at the same time ... a thoroughly despicable, dirty tricks practice!![]()
Well done The SunI hope they get more.
Fully justifiable imho to snare this sleazy, self-serving hypocrite. As the article I linked to here says http://filipinaroses.com/showthread....-to-be-British it's about time we had a decent scandal
What a man does in his own private home should remain private
I am no fan of drugs but if this old goat enjoy consuming them then thats his decision
No one was being abused here![]()
The only thing sordid about this private matter was The Sun splashing inappropriate adult pics
of a private liaison across its paper for all and sundry to view
I suppose all those years of bare boobs on page three were fine then.
This world of ours is just so full of hypocrisy and double standards.
In principle I'd go along with that.........on the basis that what goes on in your private home is legal and technically socially acceptable.
Having said that, what I find difficult to accept is that it's OK to undertake secret filming in your own home solely for the purpose of titillation and commercial gain.
I wonder how many folks here would wish that kind of secret filming to happen behind the closed doors of their own private home ?
Was this instigated due to 'information received'
Precisely ... it isn't (normally) ... and, if it's done without the householder's knowledge, then it constitutes a gross invasion of privacy!
Clearly, this whole thing has been an elaborate "set up" job with a twofold objective... and that is what I find reprehensible, as I have pointed outin my response to London Manila's speculation.
Nobody in their right state of mind.![]()
Yes Simon I know.
I'm not sure where you're coming from mate or what point you're trying make with something I posted.
As I said
Whatever sheep shagging or snorting cocaine has to do with the price of eggs is beyond me.n principle I'd go along with that.........on the basis that what goes on in your private home is legal and technically socially acceptable.
Are you sure you're not on something![]()
It was not a point to make at your posting Terpe, the point was more a general statement.
The analogy was referring to the fact that Lord Sewel was in charge of behavioural standards amongst his peers, or in other words keeping their noses clean (no pun, or coke intended). However, it would appear that coke and hookers are socially acceptable to some people and it's the entrapment that appears to be the socially unacceptable act.
So the analogy was, is it acceptable for anyone in a position of maintaining standards ok to do the opposite in the privacy of his own home![]()
I think that whatever the privacy issues, most of us are in agreement on the major point... that the bloke is a hypocritical twot.![]()
