Removed coverage of on-going scandal.

There is a scandal which is less than 24 hours old. I've removed the content, because I don't feel that the sources are reliable enough secondary sources. We need to wait for the he-said she-said to die down and review articles to appear. Stuartyeates (talk) 09:27, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The secret recording was first reported in March 2016; that's 15 months ago. Just saying. Schwede 66 10:21, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And there is also an existing paragraph on the page detailing the background of the scandal.Kiwichris (talk) 11:24, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Since he has announced he will not be standing for his seat again, and it is clear this is directly connected to the scandal, I think it is now appropriate for the content to be restored.-gadfium 09:02, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Kiwichris (talk) 09:47, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
