A Reform MP, James McMurdock, has given up the party whip while he is investigated over allegations about his business conduct during the coronavirus pandemic.

Lee Anderson, the party’s chief whip, made the announcement on Saturday, saying it related to accusations due to be made public in a national newspaper.

The allegations were about “business propriety during the pandemic and before he became an MP”, Anderson said.
