Bob Stewart: Sunak must remove the whip

3 Nov 2023

Responding to news that Conservative MP Bob Stewart has been found guilty of racially abusing an activist, Liberal Democrat Chief Whip Wendy Chamberlain MP said:

"It's time Sunak finally acted with integrity. This should start with immediately removing the whip from Bob Stewart. 

"Failing to remove the whip sends a dangerous message that behaviour like this is acceptable.

"Rishi Sunak has allowed his first year as Prime Minister to he dogged in sleaze and scandal, the very least he could do now is to finally crack down on it."
