Investigate and enforce mandatory drugs testing for all members of parliament.
EVIDENCE of widespread drug use inside the Houses of Parliament is exposed by The Sun today.
Undercover reporters found traces of cocaine in NINE different toilets in the historic palace where our laws are made.
Traces of the Class A drug were also found in toilets shared with guests enjoying receptions at Parliament’s riverside bars.
The findings suggest the drug is regularly being snorted at both the Commons and the Lords — with users defying airport-style security checks and a 500-strong team of cops and security officers.
The revelations come just days after watchdogs sparked outrage by recommending MPs receive a whopping £7,500 or 11 per cent pay rise, taking salaries to £74,000 a year.
