Lord Ashdown does not rule out Huhne comeback
Former Liberal Democrat leader Lord Ashdown has told ITV's The Agenda that although it was unlikely Chris Huhne, who was jailed for eight months today, would return to public life, it was not impossible.
He said: "I personally believe in redemption. You never say never in politics but if I ever said never about anything I'd say it about this. I don't think so.
"I don't say he can't ever comeback to public life provided that process of catharsis is gone through...my own view is that a period of silence rather than public statements might be a better course to follow but let's see what he says."

David Miliband on the 10th anniversary of the Iraq war
Reflecting on the 10th anniversary of the Iraq war, David Miliband told Tom Bradby on The Agenda, that:
"If the message to dictators around the world is that the West will never intervene - and that's the message that President Assad of Syria has got today - we're going to live in a very very dangerous world."
David Miliband: 'We're on the back foot on Syria'
Speaking on The Agenda about the situation in Syria, David Miliband said:
We are on the back foot on Syria. Not just the humanitarian 70,000 people but the geo-politics, refugees in Turkey and Jordan, destabilisation within Syria, the whole state collapsing, the Middle East rocked by essentially by a Saudi versus Iranian proxy war going on in Syria.
I think that is something where the burden of proof is now on those who don't want to intervene rather than those who do. It's still a huge decision, it's still got to be the last resort.
But my fear is this - if we're back in a year's time and we haven't done anything Assad will still be there. He will have murdered another 30,000 people and the ricochet effects from Syria will be much greater.

David Miliband: 'Bush the worst thing to happen to Blair'
The former Foreign Secretary David Miliband has told ITV's The Agenda that "George Bush was the worst thing ever to happen to Tony Blair."
Speaking a fortnight before the 10th anniversary of the start of the Iraq war, he said: "Before I became an MP I worked for Tony Blair in Downing Street and I watched him with President Clinton and I watched him go through the agony before the intervention in Kosovo, which saved a lot of lives.
"There's no question in my mind that if you compare that to the post 2001 period George Bush was the worst thing ever to happen to Tony Blair if I contrast those two relationships with one American President and with the next.
"Because the first term of the Bush administration took America and the world on a very different course than had been set in the post Cold War period."

Harriet Harman on The Agenda with Tom Bradby
Appearing on ITV's The Agenda with Tom Bradby, deputy Labour leader Harriet Harman was asked whether she would encourage women in her party to report allegations of inappropriate behaviour.
She replied: "I think no institution is immune from this and actually all institutions have got to absolutely reflect on it.
"But it's got to be reflected on with the thought in mind not of the person who's being accused but for the person who's actually spoken up and actually properly looking into those investigations.
"...It's all too easy for a man to feel horrified that a male colleague is being accused and to feel that it might bring a bad reputation to the organisation."
Other guests on tonight’s programme are Mary Beard, Omid Djalili and Danny Finkelstein.
