Welsh Liberal Democrats have narrowly avoided yet another political sex scandal after the Swansea party’s website began linking to gay dating sites and porn.

Visitors to the website were expecting information about councillors and events but immediately complained to the Ombudsman after instead being offered “casual dating and sex.”

Welsh Assembly Member Peter May explained that it was all because the site had not yet been paid for.

He told the South Wales Evening Post: “We are in the process of changing our website and we haven’t renewed the subscription for the site address.

“So the owners have put a search engine on there instead and obviously people can look up what they want on a search engine.

“We are redesigning our site and there will be a couple of weeks when we do not have any web address available.

“We will renew the subscription for this site and will be directing visitors to the new site through it.”

This year Lib Dem MP Mark Oaten was forced to withdraw from the party’s leadership race after it was revealed that he had an affair with a gay rent boy. He eventually blamed this on baldness and is now back with his wife.

Lib Dem party president Simon Hughes was forced to come out as bisexual after tabloid newspapers accused him of lying about his sexuality.

Most recently, eccentric politician Lembit Opik was revealed to be going out with Cheeky Girl Gabriela Irimia after things were cooled off with weather girl Sian Lloyd.
