Suspended by the Lib Dems.

Not sure on this one. Not enough evidence to find him guilty but the general consensus seems to be "he did it".

Thoughts?

Im wondering why he hasn't had his collar felt by the law if there are sexual misconduct allegations?

Inquiry says not guilty, to force him to apologise would be to force him to plead guilty despite the findings of the inquiry.... all a bit warped I think.

Yes And quite a few women making the allegations.

Not enough or no evidence to say he did anything. Until he's proven guilty he should be allowed to keep his position. Clegg, as usual, is being an arse. Trying to force him to apologize and therefore admit guilt....

Brighton - even Hove!

Yet another person who appears to be covered in a thin sheen of oil whilst in a suit. Most unpleasant.

There's been quite a bit of stuff about a Lib Dem in Private Eye recently, but I'm dammed if I can remember the name.

If he hasn't been convicted of anything why has he got to resign?

"If he hasn't been convicted of anything why has he got to resign?"

Because it politics, it's not what you do or don't do, it's about court of public opinion. There have been a few playboy politicians (one a senior lib dem) but if the public like them "he's just one of the boys" they get away with it. Unfortunately for this guy, he doesn't have much going for him so comes across as a sleaze.

I still say If he hasn't been convicted of anything why has he got to resign or be suspended.

Supposedly you are innocent until proven guilty.

If all that's happened is that he's had the Lib Dem whip suspended, why can't he sit in the Lords as a cross bencher/ independent?

PS not that I approve of the Lords.

This is a legal wrangle. It has been deiced that there is not enough evidence to launch a successful prosecution against him. However if he says sorry, then he's admitting his guilt. So by saying sorry, those women would then be able to successfully sue him. So he's not going to apologise. Simples!

A barrister said there was not enough evidence, not that he was in fact innocent. Huge difference.

Many people face disciplinary action, lose their jobs etc, without any police involvement whatsoever. This was an organisation that had lots of staff complain about his behaviour but did nothing, so were complicit with him, once one woman had complained. The party may want to show one face, but their employment practices and voting through of shameful tory policies very clearly show their true identity. The ministerial jags etc are very attractive and a pain to give up. Most pople would be suspended as soon as a gross misconduct allegation is made. That sleazy party, carry on regardless.

Can't see why Nick Clegg is so het up about this.

Isn't he the lying bastard that told millions of supporters (now ex supporters) he wouldn't increase Student Fees ( amongst other issues ) then did just that so he could grab a slice of power?

In English law there is only two judgements, guilty or not guilty. We also have the phrase innocent until proven guilty.
