O How The Nindie Have Fallen

Buried at the bottom of an article about Tory sleaze in today's paper:

Mark Fisher, the Labour MP for Stoke-on-Trent, confirmed yesterday that he employed his stepson, Crispin Hunt, the former lead singer of the indie band Longpigs, as a full-time researcher on more than £30,000 a year. "He's nearly 40, he's not a student. He's not a part-time employee. He's very good," said Fisher.

I wonder if Crispin Mills and Miles Hunt work for their dads as well?

also, surely if they ban MPs from employing their own children they'll just employ EACH OTHER'S children, won't they?
