Conservative former London minister Paul Scully said on Tuesday he regrets sparking controversy for claiming that parts of Tower Hamlets and Birmingham have become “no-go areas”.
"My concern is about perceptions of such areas which fuel the type of divisive rhetoric we've heard,” the MP for Sutton and Cheam and former London mayoral candidate told the Evening Standard, after fellow MP Lee Anderson had the Conservative whip withdrawn for an incendiary attack on Mayor Sadiq Khan.
