Can you tell the truth please..?

At another mesmerising Manorbier Community Council meeting this evening, there was a dazzling display of fibbingness. The discussion centred on the Staffing Committee - I won't bore you with the details - and the Chairman's (Cllr Toney Wales) recollection of his version of events.

When challenged by Cllr Calver as to when the Council would be recieving Minutes of the already held meetings of the Grievance/Staffing/Personel Committee (the Committee Title seems to change all by itself), Cllr Toney Wales emphatically declared that Minutes had already been distributed to each Councillor.

This was challenged by both Cllr's Calver and Davies immediately. Cllr Toney Wales was resolute in his statement that Minutes had been circulated and would be drawn no further in explaining what he had stated.

After further inquiries, it transpires that Cllr Toney Wales was fibbing. Minutes to these questionable meetings - due to the fact that the Council had not formed the Grievance/Staffing/Personel Committee in the first place - had indeed not been circulated to all Councillors as declared by Cllr Toney Wales.

Why did he fib? Is there something here that Cllr Toney Wales is trying to conceal? Surely not - members of Manorbier Community Council do not engage in such underhanded trickery.

Do they?
