king Council is leading an investigation
00:01:01
and stressed low has so far refused to
00:01:03
cooperate with this probe in a statement
00:01:06
Yousef and Anderson said it's with
00:01:08
regret that we feel obliged to disclose
00:01:10
that the party received complaints from
00:01:12
two female employees about serious
00:01:14
bullying in the offices of the Member of
00:01:16
Parliament for Great Yarmouth rupo one
00:01:19
worked in his parliamentary office the
00:01:21
other in his constituency office we
00:01:23
understand complaints have been made to
00:01:25
parliamentarian authorities evidence was
00:01:28
provided to us to the work play bullying
00:01:30
the targeting of female staff who raised
00:01:33
concerns in evidence of derogatory and
00:01:35
discriminatory remarks made about women
00:01:38
including reference to a perceived
00:01:39
disability we feel we have the duty of
00:01:41
care to all our staff whether employed
00:01:44
directly or indirectly accordingly we
00:01:46
appointed an independent king Council to
00:01:49
conduct an investigation into the
00:01:50
visarity of these complaints to date Mr
00:01:53
low has yet to cooperate with this
00:01:55
investigation rer low has now of course
00:01:58
taken to social media over the last half
00:02:00
an hour um and has yeah he's going ham
00:02:04
by the way and I'm just going to try and
00:02:06
start from the start of where it's
00:02:07
happened but this is the first post that
00:02:10
he put He said I'm disappointed but not
00:02:11
surprised to read reforms untrue and
00:02:14
false allegations let me be abundantly
00:02:16
clear this investigation is based on
00:02:18
zero zero credible evidence against me
00:02:21
as has been repeated stated by the
00:02:23
neutral investigator none has been
00:02:25
provided I have cooperated and spoken at
00:02:28
length with the Casey they instructed
00:02:30
and great cost to the party and
00:02:31
investigating minor staff matter I've
00:02:34
just spoken to the KC she is dismayed
00:02:36
that this statement has been made and
00:02:38
reiterated that there's no evidence
00:02:39
against me has been sent to her she
00:02:42
stated that this has been issued before
00:02:44
an investigation is even started she is
00:02:46
shocked at the process shocked at the
00:02:48
communication from the party and shocked
00:02:50
that no credible evidence has been given
00:02:52
despite her repeated requests I was sent
00:02:55
an initial letter late on Friday
00:02:57
afternoon last week again with no
00:02:59
evidence provided with no prior warning
00:03:01
no attempt to understand the full
00:03:03
position and and un and entirely untrue
00:03:07
I have never made any derogatory
00:03:08
comments about women or those with
00:03:10
disabilities This Is A Lie these
00:03:12
allegations are not even referring to me
00:03:14
I'll will be seeking leave I'll be
00:03:16
seeking legal advice immediately there
00:03:18
is no credible evidence against me as
00:03:21
the Casey has stated on numerous
00:03:22
occasions is no surprise that this
00:03:25
fictitious statement has been issued the
00:03:27
day after my reasonable and constructive
00:03:29
questions of Nigel and the reform
00:03:31
structure it was issued on X late on a
00:03:34
Friday afternoon with no prior warning
00:03:36
all I stated was that communication
00:03:38
needs to improve delegation needs to
00:03:41
improve structure needs to improve
00:03:43
they're all reasonable requests of a
00:03:45
party looking to form the next
00:03:46
government I stand by everything I said
00:03:49
I have been pushing for this behind the
00:03:50
scenes for many months with zero success
00:03:52
I been frozen out of meetings policy
00:03:54
discussions press conferences and more
00:03:56
my repeated requests for better
00:03:58
communication and regular meeting things
00:04:00
have been ignored and mocked honestly I
00:04:02
have tried and tried and I will continue
00:04:03
to try I did not speak publicly without
00:04:06
exhausting all other options repeatedly
00:04:08
I have done everything in my power to
00:04:10
resolve this behind closed doors sadly I
00:04:13
failed our voters our members and our
00:04:16
country all deserves so much better than
00:04:18
this to reform supporters of mine please
00:04:20
stay with the party we must win the next
00:04:22
election there is no other choice in
00:04:24
fighting serves nobody but our enemies
00:04:26
this could have all been resolved with
00:04:28
even the most basic level of Comm
00:04:29
communication I do not believe that
00:04:31
reform members will be pleased to know
00:04:33
that their membership fees are being
00:04:34
spent on instructing expensive lawyers
00:04:36
to investigate their own MPS over
00:04:39
matters that are entirely baseless and
00:04:41
have been dealt with all of the correct
00:04:43
parliamentary procedure with HR full
00:04:46
involvement and support the staff member
00:04:48
in question only raised a victitious
00:04:50
complaint once this plenary proceedings
00:04:52
had been initiated against them for a
00:04:54
serious woing the other individual
00:04:56
mention dropped her appeal if they want
00:04:58
to kick me out over false claims they'll
00:05:00
have to finally present some credible
00:05:02
evidence against me there is none as the
00:05:04
KC has just told me again a complete
00:05:07
inability to accept even the most mild
00:05:09
constructive criticism without such a
00:05:11
malicious reaction is not effective
00:05:13
leadership this is our party as much as
00:05:16
it is Nigel a very very long post there
00:05:19
from rer low and that's not the only one
00:05:21
he's come out straight after that again
00:05:23
with another one stating I asked
00:05:26
reasonable and constructive questions of
00:05:28
Nigel farage and reforms leaders
00:05:29
following months of pushing for Progress
00:05:31
behind closed doors the day after I find
00:05:34
a knife in my back over false
00:05:36
allegations whip suspended that tells
00:05:39
you everything you need to know there is
00:05:41
zero evidence of me making derogatory or
00:05:43
disc uh discriminatory remarks about
00:05:46
women or disabled people anyone who
00:05:48
repeats that will be hearing from my
00:05:49
liable law lawyer I include reform in
00:05:52
that the truth will be out then lastly
00:05:55
at the time of recording this is going
00:05:56
to carry on through the night he said GB
00:05:59
news is reporting that the police
00:06:00
received a complaint yesterday relating
00:06:02
to an event in December this complaint
00:06:04
obviously went in just after I asked
00:06:06
reasonable questions of reforms
00:06:08
leadership a malicious attempt to drag
00:06:10
my name through the mud um yeah I mean
00:06:14
he's going ham um and again we don't
00:06:16
know the full scale of it but it does
00:06:17
seem a little bit fishy it does seem a
00:06:19
little bit fishy after he questioned his
00:06:21
leadership yesterday um and again I'm a
00:06:24
massive fan of rer low I'm absolutely
00:06:26
gutted I genuinely think he's the best
00:06:28
uh uh MP we've gotten the whole of
00:06:32
parliament let alone reform I genuinely
00:06:34
do think he has the the credentials to
00:06:37
one day be a prime minister himself and
00:06:40
I this would be a huge loss for reform
00:06:43
if they got rid of ruper low or this is
00:06:45
is a permanent suspension as as he gets
00:06:48
kicked out of the party um but my
00:06:51
goodness me it stinks and again all the
00:06:54
momentum that reform have got at this
00:06:56
moment in time and now this this Feud
00:06:59
it's just erupting um it does stink a
00:07:02
little bit it really does stink a little
00:07:04
bit I'm gutted for rupalo because I'm a
00:07:06
big big supporter of his um obviously
00:07:08
the those things if he was doing them
00:07:10
it's it's not right uh but should be
00:07:12
something that be should be dealt with
00:07:14
behind closed doors um and they
00:07:16
shouldn't be airing their laundry out to
00:07:19
the whole world but yeah quite frankly
00:07:21
quite gutted about that because I'm a
00:07:23
