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.
