No new probe into MP at ‘Nazi’ party

Conservative chairman Grant Shapps has rejected calls for the party to reopen an inquiry into MP Aidan Burley, after claims that he lied about his attendance at a Nazi-themed stag party.

Labour MPs demanded a fresh investigation after the publication last weekend of photographs and tape-recordings which appeared to contradict Mr Burley’s claims that he left the party before fellow guests went to a bar where revellers chanted “Hitler” and “Himmler”.
