Lord Ranger, a former adviser to Prime Minister Boris Johnson, has resigned the government whip after an investigation found that he bullied and harassed two individuals while intoxicated. The incident occurred at Parliament’s Strangers’ Bar in January, prompting the House of Lords Conduct Committee to take action.
The committee’s report revealed that Lord Ranger was “visibly drunk” and made “various inappropriate comments” to a group of people. Later, he returned to the same group and “acted aggressively, shouting and swearing,” using derogatory language and invading their personal space.
