LABOUR has suspended MP Geraint Davies pending an investigation into reports of “incredibly serious allegations of completely unacceptable behaviour”
MP Davies suspended

The decision to administratively suspend the Swansea West MP means he will have the whip removed in Westminster while a review is carried out. It follows claims against the veteran politician, which were reported by the website Politico.

It reported that two female MPs had claimed Mr Davies, who has served in Parliament for 21 years over two spells, touched them inappropriately.

Politico said it had spoken to more than 20 serving MPs and Labour staff who described allegations of inappropriate behaviour stretching back at least five years.
