Hancock's main excuse over the past few weeks has been that he's to unwell to defend himself.
However, that didn't stop Portsmouth South Independent MP Mike Hancock asking David Cameron a question at PMQ's yesterday or accusing the M.O.D. Of "incompetence" on BBC South Today last night.
Today, at 11am a committee at Portsmouth City Council will meet and decide whether or not to defer an investigation into Mike's behaviour towards a vulnerable constituent.
It's argued that such an investigation could prejudice a separate High Court action.
tbg thinks Mike could be playing for time so as he can re-stand for his Fratton seat next May rather than face the embarrassment of being blocked from standing again for the Liberal Democrats, whom locally at least, are still backing him.
