The behaviour of politicians in Parliament is coming under scrutiny after a Labour MP was found by an independent panel to have bullied a member of staff and a Tory MP was accused of watching pornography in the Commons.
The Independent Expert Panel (IEP) said Labour’s Liam Byrne, the Birmingham Hodge Hill MP, should be suspended from the House of Commons for two days after he was found to have bullied former staff member David Barker.
