Hold an all-party public inquiry into bullying and harassment in Parliament

Petition Details

Recent difficulties in relations between MP's in the Labour Party have highlighted an endemic culture of bullying within HoC.

Bullying & harassment aren't accepted in any other workplace or institution in the UK. This toxic culture is harming individuals and politics more widely.

Additional Information

MP reduced to tears watching personal attacks at Labour leader designed to "Break him as a man": http://tinyurl.com/zl268n5

Some of these MPs have since stated they felt extreme pressure to vote "no confidence" in the leader

Conservative MPs have spoken out against bullying behaviour and how ineffective current anti-bullying measures are: http://tinyurl.com/z8se6nz

We need

* Full inquiry into bullying into HoC
* Measures to bring protection for MPs and HoC staff in line with other workplaces
