A barrister and part-time judge has vowed to fight allegations that she perverted the course of justice in connection with the perjury trial of former energy secretary Chris Huhne.
Disgraced former Cabinet minister Chris Huhne repeated apologies for his wrongdoing yesterday, saying that prison had been a "humbling and sobering experience".
Former Cabinet minister Chris Huhne and his ex-wife were both freed from prison today after serving around a quarter of their eight-month sentences for swapping speeding points.
Nick Clegg has not contacted Chris Huhne in jail but retains "a lot of respect" for his party colleague and hopes to meet him when he is released, he said.
