The Conservative MP being investigated for allegedly watching pornography in the Commons chamber is expected to give into pressure to resign despite arguing he opened the material accidentally as he fought to stay in power.
Neil Parish will “likely” quit as the representative for Tiverton and Honiton, in Devon, on Saturday, a Tory source told the PA news agency, stressing that nothing is confirmed.
The select committee chair had initially vowed to continue his “duties” as an MP after he was suspended from the parliamentary Conservative Party when he was revealed to be the man at the centre of the allegations.
