Would you trust this ex-Bickley Councillor as your local Primary School's Chairman of Governors?

DO YOU THINK I'M STILL SEXY?
Back in 2008, during the last administration on Bromley Council, one of the Bickley Councillors, Gordon Jenkins,  was reported by Bromley Times as having  "...virtually 'spanked' and 'sexypoked' his cyber friends on the social networking site Facebook." Here at Village News we think it best to spare you from revealing any further the rather sordid details of this report, but it's here should you wish to have a little more information at your disposal before passing judgement:

At the time a liberal blogger pronounced,  "If Gordon Jenkins has ever stood on a platform of traditional family values; if he has ever condemned others for their behaviour; if he has ever sought to use his office to impose his moral code or to point an accusatory finger, then he should not only be ashamed but should step down."

The following year Bromley Liberal Democrats revealed that Jenkins was living in Eastbourne and, according to a Langney (in Eastbourne) Conservatives' leaflet was,  "leading Langney Conservatives" despite the fact that he still represented Bickley Ward, chaired a Council Planning Committee and was entitled to his Bromley Council allowance of over £10,000 a year. He was also named on the Eastbourne Conservative's website as their Deputy Chair in charge of membership and fundraising.

So, Village News asks, has Jenkins, "ever stood on a platform of traditional family values"? His website appears to suggest that he does as it states, "We are a close family and get together as often as we can when all our work commitments allow" and "I am married to Jan, and we will soon be celebrating our 40th Anniversary.  We moved to Eastbourne four years ago, following in the footsteps of Jan’s mum, dad, sister and brother-in-law. We have always loved Eastbourne.  In fact so much so that when we were first married and living in Tunbridge Wells we would jump in the car after Sunday lunch and drive down here just for a coffee and a walk along the seafront."

It now appears that Jenkins, in between taking part in Facebook quizzes such as, "What Sex Toy Are You?, has found time to become a Chairman of Governors of Langney Primary School.

Now, here at Village News, we're not suggesting that despite there being smoke, there may well not be fire, but we do ask whether Jenkins is a fit and proper person to chair the governors of a primary school. We did ask Jenkins this, but have received no response. We have asked the school for a response but have received none. Perhaps, readers, you won't be so shy in coming forward and leaving a comment?

In the meantime, Langney Primary School's website boasts that its governors, "...have a wide range of different skills..."

What, like being 100% per cent flirty as it emerged Jenkins was / is in another Facebook quiz?
