Shock

The former Leader of the Council was arrested on the 11^th June on suspicion of possessing indecent images of Children. He has since been released on bail until August, pending a Police investigation.

Leader of the Conservative Opposition on Kingston Council Cllr Howard Jones said 

“This has come as a tremendous shock after the recent scandal surrounding the Children’s Safeguarding issue – a person who has been entrusted for years by the people of Kingston and the Liberal Democrat Party that he led, with the most important community leadership role has had to step down quite rightly whilst this serious and very nasty allegation is investigated by the police.”
