Kemi works in Westminster where sexual abuse and misconduct are completely endemic. In the last parliament, 2 MPs were convinced and jailed (Elphicke and Imran Khan), Hill lost an Employment Tribunal case and Donaldson was charged. In this parliament, there are 2 pending cases (Norris and Spencer).

Yes!

Our Labour government has just announced an independent review in to foreign financial interference in UK politics!

It will be reported on by the end of March 2026, in 3 months.

It has just been announced in the Commons, using the example of the conviction of a senior Reform member!
