Huhne to be charged?
Quite possibly it seems:

Police are recommending both Chris Huhne, the Energy Secretary, and his estranged wife be charged over claims he evaded a penalty for speeding, it was reported last night.

No doubt there'll be more calls for him to resign..

So he is going to be charged over allegations he persuaded his wife to accept speeding penalty points on his behalf.
Director of Public Prosecutions Keir Starmer made the announcement in a televised statement this morning.

If he's been a naughty boy then he deserves to get his collar felt just like any other criminal.
I think it's customary for any minister under police investigation to resign?

Chris Huhne has quit as energy minister after it emerged he was to be charged with perverting the course of justice over claims his wife accepted speeding penalty points on his behalf in 2003.
