The Motherwell and Wishaw branch of the Labour Party has called on the constituency’s MP to clarify remarks she made during a leaked recording relating to disgraced MP Patrick Grady.
Westminster authorities last week ruled that Grady, the SNP MP for Glasgow North, had made unwanted sexual advances against a teenage member of staff by touching and stroking his victim’s hair, back and neck in a London pub in 2016. He was given a two-day suspension from the House of Commons.
During the leaked audio footage, Motherwell and Wishaw MP Marion Fellows stated to a meeting of SNP MPs at Westminster: “Patrick is not out of our thoughts and Patrick is getting support. Just because people don’t see it, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening."
