Why? Well, the public expects the reactionaries to be corrupt.
About 35% of people say they'll vote for those reactionaries in the coming election.

I dont really agree. All of the people under investigation are Labour.
The Tory claims are the kind of "who the hell has a moat?" kind
The Labour sleaze is more about the flipping of homes to maximise allowances and avoidance of Capital Gains tax
Also (because Cameron is in a stronger position is his party) the Tories have been able to appear front foot and dealing with issues while Brown appears to dither.
