Glasgow bin lorry driver 'repeatedly lied'

An inquiry into the Glasgow bin lorry crash has found the tragedy could have been avoided if the driver had not lied about his history of blackouts.

Harry Clarke, 58, was unconscious when the lorry veered out of control on 22 December 2014, killing six people.

The inquiry report states that he "repeatedly lied in order to gain and retain jobs and licences".
