Lord Sewel resigns from House of Lords after drug claims.

Lord Sewel has resigned from the House of Lords after being filmed allegedly taking drugs with prostitutes.
Footage obtained by The Sun on Sunday appeared to show the peer - who had been deputy speaker of the Lords - snorting powder from a woman's breasts.
In a letter to the Clerk of the Parliaments, he wrote: "I want to apologise for the pain and embarrassment I have caused."
He said he hoped his decision would "limit and help repair" the damage.
Police have also launched a criminal investigation and searched a property in central London.
The Metropolitan Police said it was looking into "allegations of drug-related offences involving a member of the House of Lords".
Speaking in Singapore, Prime Minister David Cameron welcomed Lord Sewel's decision to "absent himself" but appeared to rule out wider reforms to the House of Lords as a consequence, saying he had tried and failed in the last Parliament to do so and was not planning "to go down that route again".
