""He was a small boy when he saw the then mayor march past in all his glory," said Lord Alton, a former parliamentary colleague of Smith. "He told himself: that's the job for me, and didn't he do well when he got it? Maybe

"Asked about the claim by the former Liberal MP Lord Alton that he had "facetiously" said Smith's behaviour was no different to conduct at public schools, Steel said: "You say it is a facetious remark. But it also happens to be true that in those days
corporal punishment was permitted.
Steel, who served as Liberal leader between 1976 and 1988, angrily rejected claims that he should have done more to investigate allegations against Smith.
Before Smith was elected as Liberal MP for Rochdale in 1972, he served as a councillor
in Rochdale, where he became mayor in 1966. He sat on committees which gave him access to residential homes for young boys.
Police are investigating allegations that Smith raped boys at the Knowl View residential school in Rochdale and abused boys at the privately-run Cambridge
House children's care home. The homes closed in 1992 and 1965 respectively."
