Parliament’s standards watchdog has opened an investigation into Rupert Lowe, reportedly over a failure to declare the hundreds of thousands of pounds donated to his “Rape Gang Inquiry”.

The independent MP for Great Yarmouth launched a crowdfunder in March to support a national inquiry into the scandal of children being groomed and abused by gangs across the UK.
