Gorbals Mick Investigates ...

Not a title of a second-rate TV show but hard-hitting fight against corruption by our fearless and intrepid Speaker of the House of Commons. Apparently he is to lead an investigation to see whether "I'm a straight sort of guy" Blair misled Parliament in his answers to the Bernie Ecclestone affair. It seems that Blair personally intervened to exempt Formula One from the tobacco advertising ban within hours of meeting Ecclestone - who coincidentally was a major Labour Party donor - but then "lied" to Parliament.

Now you call me a cynic but what are the odds that Blair will be fully exonerated by Gorbals Mick without a stain on his character?
