Shameless IV

The UK's Parliamentary expenses scandal is now producing a steady bleed of MPs announcing that they will not stand at the next election, along with a frantic rush to the Lords by those fearing the judgement of the people. Meanwhile, one of those remaining (for now) - former Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott - is clear about who is really at fault here: not the MPs who shamelessly (and sometimes criminally) rorted their expenses claims, but the media who put it before the public.

He should be the next to go.
