		<description><![CDATA[The news that the Messrs Chaytor, Devine, Morley and Lord Hanningfield make seek to utilise parliamentary privilege to escape prosecution under the Theft Act 1968 has dealt another blow against the reputation of Parliament.

This morning&#8217;s show failed to appear as expected on the web site and has only recently been uploaded.
