A WHATSAPP group in which MP Andrew Gwynne posted "completely unacceptable" messages is being investigated, a Government minister has said.

WhatsApp group probe after minister is sacked

Housing minister Matthew Pennycook could not say if others in the chat, which reportedly included another Labour MP, will be suspended, but he suggested the Prime Minister could take action based on what the investigation finds.

Mr Gwynne said the messages were "badly misjudged", after Sir Keir Starmer sacked him as health minister and suspended him from the Labour Party.

The MP for Gorton and Denton reportedly posted sexist comments about Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and racist remarks about Labour MP Diane Abbott.
