"Good morning.
I am pleased to announce that I will face no further action relating to the false allegation made against me.
The last few weeks have been a testing time.
I'm glad it's over.

I would like to thank my solicitor David Osborne for his sound legal advice.
I would like to thank the Metropolitan Police and the Crown prosecution Service for their thoroughness - attention to detail - and professionalism.
Most of all - I would like to thank my friends - in and outside of Parliament - and my constituents who have kindly emailed - telephoned - and written to me - offering their support.

To be falsely accused of anything - is an awful thing.
My accuser - is single - well educated - and in her mid 30s.
For the record - I was in a full consenting relationship with her. The evidence supported this.
It was only when I 'ended' the relationship - she concocted her vindictive and outrageous story.
Sadly - as an MP - sometimes - you have target on your back........
Of course she remains anonymous
The law on anonymity does need to be reviewed and 'fairness' does need to play a far greater role in these cases.
I am now oin to et on wit servin my constituents."
