A member of Parliament in England has been accused of watching pornography inside the House of Commons.
Neil Parish, MP for Tiverton and Honiton, was accused of watching adult material inside the parliament chambers. Two colleagues allegedly caught him watching the inappropriate material. Parish has identified himself as the suspect of an investigation but refuses to comment on the validity of claims.
"Following recent allegations regarding an MP’s use of their mobile phone in Parliament, I have referred myself to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards in the House of Commons," Parish said in a short statement on the matter.
