Given that he publicly stated he had, or would submit one, I think it was reasonable to assume Cllr Perkins had actually authored, or cause to be authored, the FoI to West lothian council which referred to me, Chris Watts, Des Morgan and Steve Wakefield.
I didn't bother pursuing the identity of the author because I assumed a serving councillor or officer or director would have just enough wit to cover their arse by getting a 3rd party to submit the FoI for them.
Not bothered. Pinnochio Perkins said he was going to, so if he didn't actually do it, it was just another bullshit and his nose grew a little bit longer
