A Conservative member of Pembrokeshire County Council, alleged to have said that all white men should have a black slave, has withdrawn from the political group and referred himself to the Ombudsman.
Conservative county councillor for Haverfordwest's Prendergast ward Andrew Edwards is claimed to have made the comment in a recording, which it is said was then sent to Pembrokeshire County Council's monitoring officer.
It is understood that Cllr Edwards - who is also a magistrate and a school governor - was identified by his voice.
