Second Holyrood politician now sitting as independent ahead of PM's speech
Daily Record
|September 30, 2025
Foysol Choudhury is facing the allegation after a complaint was lodged by a Holyrood staffer, who is younger than the politician.
A LABOUR MSP has been suspended by his party after claims of sexual harassment were made against him by a woman.
The revelation comes ahead of Prime Minister Keir Starmer's keynote speech to the Labour Party conference in Liverpool.
It emerged at the weekend that Choudhury is sitting as an independent MSP after he was suspended over an allegation of inappropriate conduct.
No details were given by the party and sources have now revealed to us that the complaint includes an allegation of sexual harassment.
It is understood the woman was signposted to Labour's UK-wide complaints process.
Choudhury is the second Labour MSP to have been suspended in the last few weeks. South Scotland MSP Colin Smyth was charged earlier this month with possession of indecent images of children.
