Expenses fraud MP freed
By Wesley Johnson and Jennifer Cockerell
Former environment minister Elliot Morley has been freed from prison after serving a quarter of his 16-month sentence for fiddling his parliamentary expenses, sources said.
Morley, who claimed more than £30,000 in bogus mortgage payments relating to his home in Winterton, near Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, between 2004 and 2007, was released from Ford open prison, near Arundel, West Sussex, early this morning.
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
