What's that? The "who's a naughty boy" list of the Tory party?

"Video exists of three males urinating on him"  :lol:

Tory politician commits sexual harassment - nothing to see here, move along

:huh:

One of them already has resigned.

One. From his cabinet position. He remains an MP.
Labour have suspended their naughty MP.
The other Tories who have done genuinely bad things?...

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

I expect he was drunk.

Its a great way of getting rid of political opponents though; you just need the memory of an elephant and, a mere 6 years later.......in goes the knife.

It is possible to be sexually demeaning to someone in a way that does not imply that you are attracted to them.

Not with what he is accused of doing (draping himself on her, mentioning that he had somewhere she could warm her hands when she mentioned they were cold).

Oh my.

garbon

That's the thing. What he did specifically doesn't sound that extreme but I can imagine a bit noxious when you are just trying to work.

He has denied the Leadsom incident btw, so it is his word against hers.

I think the real reason he has left is that this sort of marginally creepy behaviour is standard for him. Therefore, if he stayed, there would be a continuous drip-drip of allegations against him - something which government hates.

Gups

According to the Times, there is an allegation of a serious sexual assault against Fallon.

Meanwhile another Tory MP has had the whip withdrawn and has been reported to the police

Nice to see some cases being acted upon.
Considering the already slim Tory hold on power a few bi-elections could break them.
