Shame this didn't come out on Wednesday, they must have decided to keep mum about it untill after the local election's. It did not matter which party he came from it is an awfull way to conduct yourself in a position of trust.

We do seem to have some odd fruitcakes in Parliament.

We've got one or two fruitcakes on here as well.
In all seriousness, what happened to innocent until proven guilty? Would it not be wise let the process take it's course before condemning the man, irrespective of the allegations?

"The allegations are one of rape against one man and sexual assault against another man. Both of those men are now in their early 20s."
"The offences are said to have been committed at his home in the village of Pendleton near Clitheroe which is in his constituency of Ribble Valley."
From Sky News
We do not know when the alleged offences are supposed to have taken place.
We'll have to wait for a statement from Parliament, perhaps a clarification of what actually happened.
This is becoming embarrassing.
Could it be that two men had an axe to grind, or did an honourable MP overestimate his rights....
The Police will no doubt sort this one out, and I hope they don't leave a stone unturned!

Tory MP Nigel Evans arrested after sex assault claims by two men
Deputy speaker in House of Commons held and house searched following allegations
Nigel Evans was in custody on Saturday evening following the complaints against him of rape and
sexual assault.
MPs from across the political spectrum have expressed shock after the House of Commons deputy
speaker and Conservative MP Nigel Evans was arrested on suspicion of rape and sexual assault.
Detectives visited his home in Pendleton, Lancashire, on Saturday morning following allegations made
by two men who were in their 20s at the time of the alleged attacks, which are said to have taken place
at the property in July 2009 and March 2013.
The house and his car were searched by officers while Evans was held in custody at Preston police
station. He was released on police bail until 19 June.
The prime minister, David Cameron, is understood to have been informed about the arrest of the
55-year-old, MP for Ribble Valley since 1992, one of the few Tory strongholds in the north.
John Bercow, the Commons speaker, last night told the Daily Mirror: "It's been a total shock
. Nigel is a popular and well-liked character. No one can quite believe what's happened."
Brian Binley, Tory MP for Northampton South and a friend of Evans, said: "I was just deeply
disturbed and shocked.
Evans is openly gay, having come out as homosexual in 2010, the year he was elected to his current
post. In the 2010 general election Evans retained his seat with a majority of 14,769 over Labour,
with Ukip making a then strong showing in fourth place with 3,496, or 6.7% of the vote.

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.
