LONDON — Prime Minister Theresa May fired deputy prime minister Damian Green on Tuesday after an investigation unveiled that he had made “inaccurate and misleading” statements about porn found on the official state computer assigned to the deputy prime minister in 2008.
It was only late this year that the revelation about porn on Green’s computer was made public. The former second in command in the United Kingdom repeatedly denied that he had ever watched porn on the secured computer.
However on Tuesday Dec. 20 investigators went public and said that Green “misled the public” with all of those denials. Investigators went so far as to reveal that Damian Green knew he had porn on his computer going back as far as 2008. What the investigators did not say is what genre of porn was saved onto the hard drive of his computer.
When the scandal went public back in November, Green’s conservative friends and pundits including the conservative Daily Mail newspaper, they had to admit that if it were proven that Green knew about the “mysterious” porn, and then lied about it to the prime minister, then he should and would be obligated to resign.
A brief statement taken from Green’s resignation letter was released to the press:
“I accept that I should have been clear in my press statements that police lawyers talked to my lawyers in 2008 about the pornography on the computers, and that the police raised it with me in a subsequent phone call in 2013,” he wrote. “I apologize that my statements were misleading on this point.”
