John Leech HAS defended himself, repeatedly and (in my eyes)successfully, against accusations about lying over Christies, and has even challenged the labour prospective candidate to a public debate on the matter.
As for KB being made a life peer, as Dave said, he was specifically voted OUT of parliament, and it is an insult to the voters of this constituency for their wishes to be ignored. I'm quite sure Mr Bradley could be useful in some role in public life which doesn't fly in the face of the principles of democracy - head gardener at Marie Louise Gardens springs to mind - but he shouldn't have been made a peer.
