Incredible to see how many have been promoted inc chief whip. Doesn't look that fake now, does it?

It didn't look that fake at the time and we were told to 'move on', as usual...
I remember the Tim Fortescue clip being dug up again - "For anyone with any sense, who was in trouble, would come to the whips and tell them the truth, and say now, I’m in a jam, can you help? It might be debt, it might be… a scandal involving small boys, or any kind of scandal in which, erm er, a member seemed likely to be mixed up in, they’d come and ask if we could help and if we could, we did. And we would do everything we can because we would store up brownie points… and if I mean, that sounds a pretty, pretty nasty reason, but it’s one of the reasons because if we could get a chap out of trouble then, he will do as we ask forever more." - it seems things don't change much...
Edit - had to look up the source - from Westminster's Secret Service documentary, 1995
