Lichfield MP denies making light of sexual assault and later tweeted some people are ‘professional offence takers’
Conservative whips have remonstrated with the Tory MP Michael Fabricant over a tweet in which he appeared to make light of the arrest of a colleague over allegations of rape and sexual assault.
It emerged on Tuesday that an unnamed Conservative MP had been arrested on suspicion of indecent assault, sexual assault, rape, abuse of a position of trust and misconduct in public office.
