If there is even a grain of truth in these new allegations it is deeply worrying. He must have been subject to Developed Vetting (PV in my day) so the question that must be asked is “Why were these inconsistencies not detected at that stage?” The stretching of the truth, exaggeration or omission of details can be used a leverage by those seeking to subvert. Equally important, it reveals a willingness and capacity to deceive on the part of the individual.

Whilst the new allegations remain to be verified, his wearing of a decoration to which he was not entitled seems to have been established beyond reasonable doubt and indicative of a serious character defect. This alone might be deemed sufficient to re-evaluate his suitability to be permitted access to sensitive information.
