About this episode
Former MP Crispin Blunt pleaded guilty to drug possession charges, including crystal meth and cannabis, following a police raid on his home. The raid was part of a rape investigation that was dropped last May due to lack of evidence. Blunt, a Conservative who served as prisons minister and chaired the foreign affairs committee, lost the Conservative whip after his arrest and chose not to stand for re-election. He represented himself in court, dressed in a charcoal suit with a purple tie. The guilty plea marks a challenging chapter for Blunt, with the legal process now shifting focus.
