*Climate Change Secretary accused of cover-up
*Lying to police could lead to a jail term for 56-year-old
*'He does drive a bit like a maniac,' admits ex-wife
*Tip-off came from source close to bisexual lover
"Sensational details of a phone call Climate Change Secretary Mr Huhne made to the person he allegedly persuaded to take his speeding points were today revealed.The phone call, which is corroborated by taped evidence, flies in the face of the Liberal Democrat MP's repeated public denials of the allegations.It suggests that in private he is involved in a desperate attempt to cover up the truth to save his political career.In the phone call, which took place in recent weeks before The Mail on Sunday revealed the allegation last week, Mr Huhne warned the person who took the penalty points not to let 'the genie' out of the bottle by revealing what really happened.
He says: 'There is no evidence for this story unless you give it some legs by saying something.
'The last thing you want is a half-baked story saying you've taken points for me.'
