Peter Bone's behaviour left alleged victim a ‘broken shell’

PETER BONE’S behaviour left his alleged victim a “broken shell,” the complainant at the centre of the bullying and sexual misconduct case said today ahead of a parliamentary vote on the Tory MP’s suspension.

Parliament’s Independent Expert Panel (IEP) said that the Wellingborough MP, who has had the Tory whip removed, “committed many varied acts of bullying and one act of sexual misconduct” against a member of his staff in 2012 and 2013.

MPs were expected to vote on whether he should be handed a six-week-suspension – as recommended by the IEP – after the Morning Star goes to print.
