Sleazy MP

[Bugs]

Labour MP Geoff Hoon has said he got it "wrong" and "should have known better" after he was filmed saying he wanted to profit from his government contacts.

Mr Hoon and two other ex-ministers were suspended for bringing the Labour Party into "disrepute" after revelations in the Dispatches programme.

The ex defence secretary said he was "guilty of showing off" and watching his remarks had been "excruciating".

Prime Minster Gordon Brown said his behaviour was "not acceptable".
