Dozens of Toriy MPs - including several allies of Boris Johnson - have been criticised after voting against suspending a shamed MP who was convicted of breaking Covid laws.
Today the Commons backed a 30-day ban for Margaret Ferrier, a move which could pave the way for her having to fight a by-election.
Ms Ferrier was kicked out of the SNP after it emerged she had travelled from London to Scotland despite testing positive for Covid during lockdown - earning her a criminal conviction.
