He'd already given us the "takes out onion" routine in the Senned. Then this gem ... (lowers voice, moves into Disappointed Headmaster mode): you've let me down, you've the school down, but most importantly you've let yourselves down.

What, you mean that a blatant grifter who took £200k for his own personal ends from a highly dubious source, who was caught red-handed organising the deletion of messages specifically for the reason of dodging FOI requests, and then lashed out at someone he wrongly suspected of grassing him up - such a person should somehow be entitled to get away with it because of his colour?

He has a point though, perhaps he should have had a free pass pour encourager les autres.
He who plays the race card is in the wrong.
