Apologia

(...) a picture of Lambton in a three-in-a-bed session appeared on the Sunday papers. There could be only one result. (...)

In contrast with modern counterparts, Lambton made no excuses, saying: "I behaved with credulous stupidity and consequently have let down those I most wished to please — the Prime Minister, the Conservative Party, my electorate who have given me 22 years of loyalty, and my family."
