A shamed former top Tory accused of groping two strangers should be suspended for eight weeks for his "completely inappropriate" behaviour, a long-awaited probe ruled.
Chris Pincher - who quit as the party's Deputy Chief Whip and was subsequently suspended following claims he drunkenly assaulted two men - abused his power as an MP, a Parliamentary watchdog said.
The eight-week recommendation is likely to trigger a by-election in yet another headache for Rishi Sunak. In a ruling published today, the Standards Committee ruled Mr Pincher's conduct was "was completely inappropriate, profoundly damaging to the individuals concerned, and represented an abuse of power".
