A cabinet minister has cautioned MPs against using parliamentary privilege to name the BBC presenter who has been suspended over allegations he paid a teenager for sexually explicit photographs.

Work and Pensions Secretary Mel Stride said the facts appeared to have changed in the last 24 hours and MPs should wait to "see where all of this lands" before the presenter is named and that "privilege... should be used sparingly".
