"I was a Paris tart, says Labour candidate"

Cor! Blimey! Phwoar!

Labour has dropped a prospective MP after she confessed to having worked as a prostitute in Paris in the Seventies.

Christine Wheatley, who was on the shortlist of prospective parliamentary candidates for Copeland, in Cumbria, said: "Yes, I worked as a tart. I'm not ashamed.

"It was before I found proper work. I hit Paris with AL300, I didn't have much to spend, I had to find money."

The 53-year-old, a former Oxford student, is now training to become a lawyer at the Inner Temple in London...

Tart, lawyer, what's the difference?

And, why, you might ask, is there not a picture? Well, you might not want to see the picture. But, if you're prepared, there's a picture of the "tart" here and here.
