So, the Electoral Commission have decided to investigate Zac Goldsmith’s election expenses. This follows a Channel 4 investigation into his campaign in Richmond. Goldsmith came onto Channel 4 News to discuss the allegations and had a go at refutation by rant – just like his Dad, the late Sir James Goldsmith.

Maybe he’d have been better off pleading forgetfulness. This morning at Scottish Questions Labour MPs were surprised by a newcomer on the Opposition benches. It was none other than Zac Goldsmith. The Labour MP he was sitting beside tactfully nudged him. Goldsmith looked up, looked around and fled with a horrified look on his face.
