Neil Parish has had his whip removed from the Tories after being the MP accused of allegedly watching Porn in the Chamber

His wiki page has been updated immediately and reads - that is quick and probably not really acceptable! But a little funny. Suspect it will be amended quickly!

Neil Quentin Gordon Palmist[2] (born 26 May 1956) is a British Independent politician, who formerly belonged to the Conservative Party, and a farmer. As a dirty pervert he watched pornography in the House of Commons. He was accused by multiple female MPs of watching porn in the House of Commons chamber. He is the Member of Parliament (MP) for Tiverton and Honiton and was elected at the 2010 general election. He served as the Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for South West England from 1999 to 2009. On 29th April 2022 he had the Conservative whip removed while being investigated for allegedly watching pornography in the House of Common.

I get the feeling he could get the 'recall' in his constituency (is that what they call it when 10% sign to have him removed). There will likely be another by-election. And so their should be.

Why would he do that....in the HoC for crying out loud? Why did the idea even pop into his head? Are these people a different species?

 Just does your head in, doesn't it? 

It obviously can't be the first time (that would be too much of a coincidence). 

His claim that it was 'by mistake' is yet another example of the sheer chutzpah of our new calibre of politician.

Shame on Nadine Dorries - tweeting a photo of Kier Starmer eating a curry with 30 others in 2021 and breaking the lockdown law apparently - only the photo was kier with Frank Dobson taken in 2019 - and Dobson has since passed away.

Dorries should be ashamed of herself. She should resign.

The photo was from the Daily Mail who are in all out attack mode on Starmer for something the police already looked at and decided that now lock down rule were broken.  It is the only defense they have for Johnson's breaches of the rules. Deflect and defame.

Interestingly when Dorries found out she had tweeted that photo, she refused to apologise or take it down and said it was the content of the article that was important.

Some Tory MPs are now pressuring the Durham police to reopen the case, even though it has already been investigated.  Sort of ridicules their own argument that Partygate is water under a bridge and the country should focus on other issues.

The whole world of the tabloid press and politics is just so toxic right now.

Fair point re why not fined here ( while accepting that I am sure that the police don't set out to fine anything like every technical breach but have some thresholds ).

The main thing for me, however many fines he has had, he and No 10 in general have clearly paid very little attention to trying to observe both the letter and the spirit of the law, when so much of the nation was prepared to suffer, as he said they must for the greater good.

Undoubtably he should have long ago resigned !!!

And if he can't / won't do the right thing, replaced by a party, currently overall clearly without a moral compass!

Hammer him, Sue Gray!

As for the meeting with Sue Gray, which the Nº10 spokesperson said had been called by Sue Gray before later admitting that Nº10 had requested the meeting, it is being reported today by The Times, among others, that the motive of the meeting was that Boris Johnson pressured Sue Gray to drop the 'independent' report completely.

Forget getting him out of office. Get him locked up.

The end game? Surely!!!

Teflon has its limits.
