Labour's Dan Norris, July 5, 2024
LABOUR was right to suspend MP and West of England Mayor Dan Norris after his arrest on suspicion of child sex offences and rape, a minister said.
The party confirmed on Saturday night that it had suspended the 65-year-old MP for North East Somerset and Hanham, who has also lost the party whip, after being informed of his arrest.
Avon and Somerset Police said a man in his sixties was arrested on Friday and released on conditional bail.
