Michael Martin, speaker of the Commons, says that he hasn't harmed Parliament. Damning evidence has been presented without a denial in sight. No spin, no twists, nothing. Just a denial. No bones to gnaw on for the press, yet. Not many politicians criticising the speaker, notes Nick Robinson. No jumping ship and firing at the Scot, just Martin's assistant blaming someone else, which has been the Labour blanket response to modern crises: "Wasn't my fault. Blame him".
Can't be long before the knives are out though, the only other political news of the day was Brown dithering on runways at Heathrow. Green stuff. Great. Anybody else suffering from green fatigue? I think Martin's just suffering from fatigue.
