You know, in a Scandal, there's usually at least one person you can feel sorry for. But I don't like any of this lot.

I think I feel a teensy bit sorry for her, Bonny. But she could not be allowed to get away with it. Every wife in Britain would be pleading the same thing otherwise. So tough, really.
I reckon she will get Six Months.. I don't care about him. I hope he gets Six Years. Can't think of anything else to say about him that doesn't involve lots of Anglo Saxon.

Sentence not before 4.30. Will they arrive in prison in time for Dinner? Or will they have to have a Take Away?

Will Huhne arrive in jail in time for a game of pool with the 'old lags', I wonder?

The judge is speaking now, and he doesn't sound impressed...

Judge to VP: Your weapon of choice was the revelation of his past

4:50pm
Judge Vicky Pryce was motivated by a "desire for revenge"

4:49pm
Judge: It is no mitigation that only five months later you Mr Huhne were disqualified anyway

4:48pm
Judge: You did get away with it for some 8 years

Sentencing coming up on the live feed:

Juge to Huhne - you have fallen from a great height - but that is modest mitigation.

Judge - clear immediate custodial sentence must be imposed

Huhne jailed for 8 months - you will serve at least half he is told

Little reaction from Huhne

Vicky Pryce now on her feet being dealt with

Judge jails Vicky Pryce as well. She is given the same 8 months

Gasps in public gallery at sentence for Vicky Pryce sentence

Huhne and Pryce taken down to the cells

....And off they go. All this, over three penalty points on a driving licence - madness.

Incredible. What stubborn fools.

I've little sympathy for her - if she was going to play the Woman Scorned, it wasn't awfully clever to end up in jail herself.

Not to mention washing all their dirty linen in public, and hurting their son dreadfully. The only one who has behaved with anything resembling dignity is his bi-sexual girlfriend, as far as I can make out.

It's the Contempt, really. And I don't mean Contempt of Court. I mean contempt of his office and of parliament, and of the law in general.

Just in case anyone is deluding themselves that Ms Pryce is suffering terribly for her sins:
