A Labour MP shared a list of 20 Westminster figures alleged to be “sex pests” with colleagues on a WhatsApp group.

Charlotte Nichols shared the list of names of those purportedly accused of sexual harassment with some colleagues – later claiming she could not be a “bystander”.

Some of the MPs on the list had previously been accused of sexual misconduct, but included and at least one Tory MP who has not previously been accused, according to The Mail on Sunday.
