Keith Vaz's health appears to be recovering

In December the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards suspended his inquiry into Keith Vaz, the Labour MP for Leicester East, citing medical reasons.

But this week both Guido Fawkes and the Leicester Mercury have noticed that Mr Vaz has been rather active of late.

As the Mercury puts it:

Some six weeks later Mr Vaz has been making a series of public engagements including a planning committee, a public meeting for Belgrave traders and the re-opening of a Leicester leisure centre.

Let us hope this is a sign that Mr Vaz will soon be restored to rude health and the inquiry will be able to progress,
