Labour MP Dan Norris Arrested Over Alleged Child Sex Offences
Labour MP Dan Norris has been arrested on suspicion of rape and child sex offences, prompting his immediate suspension from the Labour Party and the removal of the party whip. The 65-year-old politician, who represents the newly formed constituency of North East Somerset and Hanham, is also being investigated for child abduction and misconduct in a public office. A Labour Party spokesperson stated, “Dan Norris MP was immediately suspended by the Labour Party upon being informed of his arrest. We cannot comment further while the police investigation is ongoing.” The party’s action followed confirmation from Avon and Somerset Police that a man in his 60s had been arrested on Friday, April 4, in connection with non-recent sexual offences against a girl. The force added that the man had been released on conditional bail while enquiries continue. In their official statement, Avon and Somerset Police said, “In December 2024, we received a referral from another police force relating to alleged non-recent child sex offences having been committed against a girl. Most of the offences are alleged to have occurred in the 2000s, but we're also investigating an alleged offence of rape from the 2020s.” The investigation is being led by officers under Operation Bluestone, a unit dedicated to rape and serious sexual assault cases. “The victim is being supported and given access to any specialist help or support she needs,” the force added. They further noted, “A man, aged in his 60s, was arrested on Friday (April 4) on suspicion of sexual offences against a girl (under the Sexual Offences Act 1956), rape (under the Sexual Offences Act 2003), child abduction and misconduct in a public office. He’s been released on conditional bail for enquiries to continue.” In light of the sensitivity of the case, the police urged the public to avoid speculation: “This is an active and sensitive investigation, so we'd respectfully ask people not to speculate on the circumstances so our enquiries can continue unhindered.” Mr Norris, who gained national attention in July 2024 when he defeated prominent Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg in the general election, has not commented publicly on the arrest. In addition to losing the party whip in Parliament, Norris has also stepped down from his position as chair of the League Against Cruel Sports. A spokesperson for the charity confirmed his resignation, stating, “The charity cannot comment further while an investigation is ongoing.” Dan Norris first entered Parliament in 1997 during Tony Blair’s Labour landslide, representing the former Wansdyke constituency. He served in government roles, including a position as assistant whip and later as a junior minister under Prime Minister Gordon Brown. After losing his seat in 2010, Norris remained active in public life and became mayor of the West of England in 2021. He was due to step down from that role ahead of local elections in May. Sky News has contacted Mr Norris for comment, but he has yet to respond. As the investigation continues, political and public reaction remains cautious, with many awaiting further details from the authorities. Based on a report by Sky News 2025-04-06 -

Watch: Fencer Disqualified After Protesting Match Against Transgender Opponent
It's a dude fencing a chick. It isn't Supman vs. Wonder woman. So you think agility is really going to matter when a dude stands 6'2" and the woman is 5'8" and the man has a wingspan much larger than hers. I also don't think a woman is more agile. -
