Andy,
It will be the long running saga of corrosion between the calliper and trailing arm causing the caliper to twist. Need to remove the caliper and clean the corrosion off the back till it sits square again. Go careful with the securing bolts - breaking them is not unknown, and removing the remains from the arm can be a right PITA....
