Beggars belief.

[Peter Pedant]

Is he an ex (MP) or a future ex ?

In 'unused material' to the Times he said " I knew I wasnt being ragged. It was all a bit hairy"

[Peter Pedant]

erm if he is an ex ( MP) then he isnt governing the country ( if you think that parliamentary sub committees govern anything).

telephone numbers, I ask the subscriber first - thinking if I have to do this the answer is probably no

[Peter Pedant]

A Leicestershire Police spokesperson said they were investigating one of the cases, which was reported last month.

yeah well they will get to the bottom of this

remember their rule - no video, no crime - er OK perhaps there is a video

Backbench MP - surely he should go?

and why arent the Spooks investigating ? or as the late Ian Paisley said " the only people who know what is going on in the Foreign Office is the KGB in Moscow!"

[davebro3]

OK - He's no longer an MP but if the sort of people we elect to parliament have the same level of intelligence (or less) as a naive 13 year old.....

[jno]

he was being blackmailed, by the sound of it. I don't know that this makes him a numpty exactly.

[davebro3]

Sharing explicit photos online without really knowing who the recipient is?  Seems well numptyish to me.

[davebro3]

.....and then submitting to blackmail - report it to the police & as the Duke of Wellington said "Publish & be damned!".

[newmodarmy]

I agree davebro.

To clarify a misunderstanding and incorrect info in the BBC article he IS still an MP but will stand down at the next GE.

Think it's time this shower changed their name to the .

                                 The Gay Tory Party.

[ToraToraTora]

I agree, what a plonker, but this is not confined to one bench.

[newmodarmy]

Gulliver....Labour has a higher proportion of gay MPs than the Cons do.

I don't care but I like pointing out when you get things wrong or tell porkies

[newmodarmy]

But what's your point gulliver? What does it matter? 

The thread is about being a numpty not about being gay.

[gulliver1]

NMA 08.39  Sorry.  You seem to know more about this sort of thing than I do.

[newmodarmy]

I know more about most things. Fir a socialist you have odd views on brown faces (sunak), guys and people who do unskilled jobs like stack shelves

[newmodarmy]

Gays not guys

[Canary42]

Afer Truss, anyone looks intelligent. Look what happened when she ran the country.

[ichkeria]

I suspect the hand of the Kremlin working certain members ...

[gulliver1]

Thought this thread was all about .

           The Westminister Blue Boys Club

[davebro3]

No it's not - it's all about an elected member of parliament of whatever party, creed, colour, or sexual preference being stupid enough to indulge in peurile behaviour exposing himself to & succumbing to blackmail.
