Jingle & Mingle party: Shaun Bailey should consider turning down peerage, says Tory MP
By Paul SeddonPolitics reporter
Shaun Bailey should consider declining his peerage over a lockdown party for staff on his failed London mayoral bid, senior Tory MP Tobias Ellwood says.
Guests were invited to " jingle and mingle" at the 2020 Christmas gathering, at a time when indoor social events were banned.
Mr Bailey is set to become a lifetime member of The Lords , after Boris Johnson nominated him for a peerage.
He has said it was " for others to decide" whether he takes his seat.
Asked on BBC Radio 4 's Today programme whether Mr Bailey should consider his position, Mr Ellwood replied: " Absolutely, he needs to consider that, if we're Being Frank . "
" There are big questions there, I don't think I Can answer those now, " added The Chair of The Commons defence Committee .
It Comes after a video was over the weekend, showing staff on Mr Bailey's campaign team drinking and dancing at The Event in Tory HQ in London.
'Very upset'The BBC has seen an invitation to The Party , in which guests were asked to save the date for " the Shaun Bailey for London Holiday Party" and were invited to " jingle and mingle".
It was sent to 30 people on behalf of Ben Mallet, a former aide to Boris Johnson seen chatting to guests in the latest footage, who was awarded an OBE by the former Prime Minister last month.
At The Time , London was under Tier-2 restrictions which banned indoor socialising.
The Conservative Party said four people were disciplined over The Event , although it has not named them.
Although Mr Bailey does not feature in the footage, he apologised again on Monday, saying he hadn't seen the video but was " very upset" by it.
He Said he had not chosen The Team of staff seen in the video, but " the buck eventually stops with me".
" It obviously turned Into Something once I'd left, I didn't realise that, " he added.
He has said it would be " for others to decide" whether he takes up his seat.
However, he added he considered it a " great privilege" and he would like to " keep doing work for the rest of the country, and London as well".
The Gathering on 14 December 2020 was organised by The Campaign team for Mr Bailey, a Tory member of the London Assembly who was running to be the capital's mayor at The Time .
Removing honoursThe Metropolitan Police investigated The Event after a still image first emerged in late 2021, but decided to take no action against those who attended. It has since said it is reviewing the new footage.
Metropolitan Police chief Sir Mark Rowley said on Monday The Force was not aware of the video during The Inquiry , adding it " tells A Story way beyond the original photo" published of The Gathering .
" I need To Let a team work through that, but I think we Can all guess which way it will go, " he told The News Agents podcast.
Life peers Can voluntarily resign their membership of The House of Lords, but legislation is required to remove it.
However, Hannah White from The Institute for Government Think Tank told Today said they " would retain, In Theory , the title of the peerage".
For other types of honours, such as MBEs and OBEs, the Forfeiture Committee - part of the Cabinet Office - Can recommend to the monarch that an award be removed.
However, it has no investigatory powers and Can only reflect the " findings of official investigations".
