UK Energy secretary resigns

Quote "Chris Huhne has resigned as energy secretary after the director of public prosecutions announced he would face a criminal charge in connection with allegedly dodging a speeding offence."

What do they say? We get the politicians we deserve?
Seems to have backfired for the "whistle blower" wife who will also face a criminal charge.
