Wink No Knighthood for Bill ?

Can anybody confirm the rumour that our erstwhile leader, Bill Semple, is being investigated for being, how shall we say it, "economical with the truth" in his evidence to the Parliamentary Select Committee on Transport? Very brave or very foolish to tell porkies to Gwynneth (if indeed he did)!!! I must confess to seeing some of the proceedings on TV, so I have my own view of his veracity - enough said.

I seem to recall that his successor also gave evidence to the same committee. Let's hope he will not be embarrassed by a lack of candour.

Economical with the truth or outright lying?
