Kennedy making personal statement (LibDem leader, on alcohol allegations)

Advertisements [?]

Would someone mind updating this when the statement is made?

Liberal Democrat leader Charles Kennedy is due to make a personal statement within the next hour.

The statement will pre-empt media allegations about his alleged alcohol problems - it will not be a resignation statement, the BBC understands.

He has said he will make the statement at Lib Dem headquarters at 1745 GMT.

Mr Kennedy has faced repeated calls to hold a vote of confidence to end talk about his future - but has insisted this would be a distraction.
