but it was still a lie wasnt it he said he done his course but he hadnt

alan didnt seem at all bothered by that

yet stuart was flamed and fired for lieing

Stuart was fired for being a tit.

It was just inept editing that made it appear that he was being fired because of the non-event of the description of his licence.

He made matters worse for himself by immediately talking about weaseling when asked - which made it look as if he agreed that he had been trying to deceive - instead of confidently sticking to his position.
