It is stranger, they say, than fiction - and much more important. I believe that telling the truth about 
issues is the prime responsibility of politicians. To that end I make no apology for singling out the selfless attitude of the Director of Corporate Resources, Roger Kershaw, who has now decided to 'come clean' about his evidence to the Standards Board. This is a matter close to my heart. The Councillor against whom he was giving testimony was, at the time, a member of the Liberal Democrat group. But Roger's statements and the word of the Chief Executive led us all to believe that this man had no future with us. That Councillor has now been acquitted and Roger has decided to clear his own conscience by publishing the evidence in full. I believe it is my duty to endorse his decision and I urge fellow Lib Dems to read what he told the Standards Board
