Sleazy Keith Vaz to face inquiry
A senior Labour MP is facing demands for a sleaze inquiry after intervening in a court case on behalf of a party donor.
Keith Vaz, chairman of the influential home affairs select committee, urged the High Court to delay proceedings involving a friend from whom he and his family had received lavish hospitality.
We can reveal that the friend - controversial lawyer Shahrokh Mireskandari - was on the brink of losing a long-running legal costs battle with an airline when Mr Vaz intervened.
I seem to recall Keith Vaz was somehow embroiled in the paedophile scandal with Frank Beck, then it was quietly swept under the carpet and we heard no more about it.
