Former Bassetlaw MP John Mann breached the House of Lords code of conduct twice
Former Nottinghamshire MP John Mann has been ordered to apologise for breaking rules on the use of his House of Lords office. Lord Mann, who served as Bassetlaw's Labour MP from 2001 until 2019, says he has been placed in a "dilemma" about the use of his office which needs to be sorted out by the "powers that be."
This meant he was introduced as an independent member of the House of Lords. In a report published on March 27, the House of Lords conduct committee now says Lord Mann breached the code of conduct twice over the use of his Parliamentary office.The report found that Lord Mann failed to register support he had received from the Antisemitism Policy Trust for his role as the Government's antisemitism advisor.
