Vicky Pryce, the ex-wife of former Cabinet minister Chris Huhne, has been found guilty of perverting the course of justice by taking his speeding points. Vince Cable and Nick Clegg's wife have denied her claim that they knew about the points.
Liberal Democrats deputy leader Simon Hughes has said the conviction of Vicky Pryce was "very sad" and it was clear from the trial that the case was a "marital issue" and not a "party political one".
The ex-wife of former MP Chris Huhne was today found guilty of perverting the course of justice by taking his speeding points a decade ago.
