“Despite the Prime Minister’s pledge to clean up politics and Parliament, and restore integrity, there are too many instances of behaviour which are unacceptable. Ms Nichols has previously said there is a “deeply rotten culture” within Westminster regarding sexual harassment and that “none of the systems we have in place are effective”.

Mr Khan was sentenced to 18 months in jail last year for sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy after plying him with gin at a party in 2008. Four women have since complained to the parliamentary authorities about Mr Knight since the Met dropped its investigation into the MP. Mr Knight, who was elected Conservative MP for Solihull, strongly denies any wrongdoing., the former deputy chief whip, was also sacked last year after groping two men in a Tory private members club.
