Labour Party chairwoman Anneliese Dodds has told Sophy Ridge the prime minister and the Conservative Party have "very big questions" to answer over allegations against suspended Tory MP Mark Menzies.

Mr Menzies, the MP for Fylde in Lancashire, has been suspended by the Conservative parliamentary party while it investigates newspaper claims - which he denies - that he misused campaign funds.

Ms Dodds said: "What's at issue is whether the Conservative Party, and particularly Rishi Sunak, has a grip on what his MPs are doing.

"And if there are problems, whether he's willing to actually deal with them."

In a statement, Mr Menzies said on Wednesday: “I strongly dispute the allegations put to me. I have fully complied with all the rules for declarations. As there is an investigation ongoing I will not be commenting further.”
