THE Labour Party said yesterday it took "swift action" against an MP over his membership of a vile WhatsApp group.

Oliver Ryan was suspended after making comments in a chat group used by Labour councillors and activists in Greater Manchester.

The MP apologised for his involvement in Trigger Me Timbers, which featured racist, sexist and other offensive messages.
