Another day, another minister under fire for what appears to be a distinctly dodgy decision. This time it's Welsh Secretary Cheryl Gillan, who sold her home near the controversial HS2 route in November, just before the route got clearance.

Trains would have passed just 500 yards from her Amersham home, and the Labour party is demanding an inquiry as to whether she breached the ministerial code.
