Honesty and Integrity underpinned by the Truth.
AS was explained to me once by a politician there is no such thing as the perfect politician to any one person.
The best a person ( voter ) can hope for is that the politician having integrity and common sense as laid out in their manifesto before they won their seat carry's on with integrity and honesty when voting in the big house. It was explained that if the chosen politician votes around eighty percent of the wishes of the voter then that is a good result.
I accept that no politician opinion's is a blue print of my own personal views, they will probably have facts not available ( but should be ) to the public.
However I voted happily for Ian Le Marquand on the basis that he was reported to be very religious and had been in a job as a judge where he daily weaselled the truth out of people and worked with and for the truth.
Small white lies become bigger black lies, which can become nasty messy things that can consume and embarrass you. It is better to apologies and as non- perfect humans, most of us accept that.
I do feel very let down by Ian Le Marquand, in an email he sent me in a reply he said let the people decide.
Rico Sorda has written to the Senator and his latest posting is shorter and clearer. My view is that the Senator is very lucky not to be standing for election, with the fog of answers offered to Scrutiny, probably because the truth is a distant memory, the truth is all there for us all to see, as clear as the destruction of the Portlet coastline.

This is what happens when you have been found out. The good Senator Le Marquand knows that his name is forever going to linked with the Cover- Up of the Historical Child Abuse Investigation. Can he still do the right thing or is it to late for him?
An exchange of letters from Ian Lemarquand and others, well worth a read.
