Lord Sewel is facing a police inquiry after quitting as House of Lords deputy speaker over a video allegedly showing him taking drugs with prostitutes.

Lords Speaker Baroness D'Souza said he had also quit as chairman of the Lords privileges and conduct committee in the wake of the Sun on Sunday's story.

The footage showed him snorting powder from a woman's breasts with a £5 note.

Baroness D'Souza said his behaviour was "shocking and unacceptable" and that she was referring him to the police.

"Lord Sewel has this morning resigned as chairman of committees. The House of Lords will continue to uphold standards in public life and will not tolerate departure from these standards," she said.

"These serious allegations will be referred to the House of Lords commissioner for standards and the Metropolitan Police for investigation as a matter of urgency."

In the footage, Lord Sewel, who is married, also discusses the Lords' allowances system.

Easily my favourite story of the moment! :lol:

It's almost like thy want to get caught at it sometimes...

Still though, £5 note? What a cheapskate! :p

Everyone who is in a position of serving the public,getting a paycheck from the British
taxpayer should be randomly drug tested. When do the people say enough is enough
and we don't trust you.
 
[1]If we got rid of all the MPs who had done drugs or slotted the occasional brass/rent boy we would have a very empty parliament I reckon.



[2]Fair play to the old fella like ;)

[1] They're a security risk, and open to all sorts of blackmail, as well as being sexual deviants. If they're doing drugs, it clouds their judgement when voting on issues that affects us all.

[2]Not when the mucky arl bastid's braggin' about how his expenses (Our taxes) pay for his peccadilloes.

Anyone collared shouldn't be allowed to resign - They should be summarily dismissed.

So he got caught. They're all deviants.
Our taxes pay for all their little kinks. History bears testament to this.

'Malfeasance in public office' is what it is termed.

I know, tommye. It's always been that way, sadly.

Doesn't make it ok in my book - any normal joe would immediately be given the tin tack instead of the option to resign (And receive a very handsome pension)
