The former chairman of the Co-operative Bank, a Methodist minister, has allegedly been caught buying crystal meth and boasting about taking ketamine and cocaine.
Reverend Paul Flowers is said to have bought illegal substances just days after he gave evidence to the Treasury Select Committee on how the bank lost £700 million and came close to collapse whilst he was at the helm.
He also sent text messages, it is alleged, claiming a party he was organising was turning into a “drug fuelled gay orgy”.
Rev Flowers has apologised for his behaviour, partly blaming the “pressures” of his job.
He could yet face criminal charges as the police say that they are making “further enquiries” into the allegations.
