I’ve set up a couple of prediction markets on what happens next. Odds currently say he’s almost certainly going to face a by-election, and Labour can win it if they can pull off Tamworth / Selby style swings. Which I think they’re more than capable of.
Crispin Blunt has just been accused of rape so that’s another seat to lose shortly.
At this rate Labour won’t even need a general election to take charge…
》and exposed his genitals near their face.
What the fuck is wrong with these people.
Its bad enouth when childish kids start sending unsolicited dick pics by phone. Who the hell is dumb enouth to think they can do it physically at work and not lose your job.
To become an middle aged MP and feel it is ab appropriate way to bully staff.
I was raised by RMN (registered mental nurse) parents. Living on the grounds of an asylum in the 1970s. Many patients spent there life in places like this. Haveing been locked away in the 1950s for behavior like this. After a life time living there. The effect was that they belonged there. The institutional life of the past was that damaging. But we are moving of topic.
But honestly. The only difference between these people and guys like this MP. How wealthy they were when cought.
The rich ones were ignored. The poor ones locked away. Generations of that class difference. Has bread a society within a society.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Peter Bone, a former Conservative minister, has been suspended as an MP for six weeks, in a move that could trigger another byelection.
The Commons voted to approve the sanction after a watchdog found Bone had harassed and bullied a staff member and exposed his genitals near their face.
Bone denied the allegations and vowed in a statement released last week to continue serving as MP for the Northamptonshire seat he has represented since 2005.
Wellingborough should be a traditional Tory safe seat, given Bone won it with a 19,000 majority at the last general election.
However, greater majorities have been overturned by Labour and the Liberal Democrats in recent years as Rishi Sunak struggles to close the Conservative party’s substantial polling deficit.
Labour has won three byelections this month: Tamworth and Mid Bedfordshire were taken from the Tories; Rutherglen and Hamilton West was taken from the SNP.
