Bettison Falls On His Sword

Handing in your resignation while maintaining that such a move doesn't amount to an admission of culpability or involvement with the Hillsborough cover-up could be seen as a case study in cognitive dissonance. Norman Bettison has certainly invited scrutiny of his self-proclaimed integrity with the decision to step down as Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police next year (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-19836760 ).
If Bettison, as he's always claimed, has nothing to hide over Hillsborough, you would think that a determination to continue in his post would be expressed & adhered to. Wouldn't you?
