| Description | Scottish Conservative MP Ross Thomson is to stand down after being accused of sexually assaulting a Labour MP in a Commons bar.
Mr Thomson said he had made the "hardest decision of my life" not to contest the seat for Aberdeen South at the general election.
Labour MP Paul Sweeney had said he reported Mr Thomson to Westminster's standards watchdog following the alleged incident last October.
Mr Thomson denies any wrongdoing.
But he said a number of "anonymous and malicious allegations" this year had made his life "a living hell". |
