Rob Roberts has had an eventful time since being chosen by the good people of Delyn to represent them in Parliament in 2019. In the past fifteen months he has been the subject of allegations of sexual harassment and sexual misconduct made against him by not one, but two, ex parliamentary staffers. Stripped of his party whip in May, like Banquo at the feast, he continues to embarrass his former Tory colleagues by infrequently emerging in the Commons to lob softball questions from the government benches.
But now, with Roberts being forced to deny Steerpike’s reports of a staffing crisis, Mr S can at last bring some good news for the onetime financial planner. The Leader of the House of Commons Jacob Rees-Mogg is set to table a motion this afternoon on the Independent Expert Panel’s recommendations on the sanctions and the Recall of MPs Act 2015.
