Labour calls for police probe into MP Mark Menzies

Police should investigate allegations an MP misused campaign funds, Labour has said.

Mark Menzies lost the Conservative whip after claims emerged that he had used political donations to cover medical expenses.

Menzies disputes the allegations.

Starmer said: “There are obviously a lot of unanswered questions in relation to these allegations, not least why it seems the Conservative Party took so long to act and whether they’ve reported this to the police, who, it seems to me, should be involved" Report by Covellm.
