There is surely no doubt that Ashcroft knowingly deceived William Hague in 2000, WH let it be known that Ashcroft was now going to be liable for millions of pounds of UK tax, a statement he wouldn't have made if he'd known Ashcrofts true intentions.
Personally I'd have thought the tory posters would have been queuing up to knock Ashcroft, because from this whole debacle WH comes out looking like he either covered for Ashcroft all these years, or far more likely in my opinion has been misled by him.
Also after this episode it looks like voters in key labour/tory marginals are not over enamored by the goings on in their constituency's, the tory lead in these key seats is also down to just 2%.
