Chris Bryant, chair of parliament's standards committee and Labour MP for Rhondda, has told Trevor Phillips on the Sophy Ridge on Sunday programme that Boris Johnson is "probably" guilty of contempt of parliament.

He says: "Probably you have not only accidentally or inadvertently misled parliament, you have probably deliberately done so, or certainly allowed the misleading of parliament to stand, and that is a culpable contempt of parliament in my view."

Mr Bryant also spoke about the story of a Tory minister and three MPs having claimed driving fines on expenses: "To my mind, it is manifestly wrong. I don't care whether it breaches a rule - it is manifestly wrong."
