Former House of Commons bar manager claims up to 30 MPs hounded her for sex including one who 'groped her on a bus'

   
A former House of Commons bar manager has claimed up to 30 MPs hounded her for sex with one even allegedly 'groping' her on a bus.
Alice Bailey, 25, worked for almost four years at Parliament's Sports and Social Bar, where she claimed many MPs behaved like 'obnoxious old pervs'.
Miss Bailey, who started work at the bar as a 19-year-old, claimed she was regularly pestered by ministers for sex.
The former barmaid told the Sun: 'They fancied their chances because I was just a young barmaid and in their minds they were very important people who presumed I would be available.'
'They were such creeps. It was pathetic as they were nearly all married and at least twice my age.'
Miss Bailey claimed that one SNP MP begged her for sex just two hours into her first shift at the bar and that a veteran Labour MP followed her home and groped her on a bus after drinking 12 pints of beer.


She also alleged that ministers often kissed their researches in the corridors of the Commons after heavy drinking sessions in the bar.
The former barmaid, from Walsall, claimed she was propositioned by around 30 MPs before she left the bar in 2015.
She said that many of them were from northern constituencies or Scotland and were staying in London away from their families.

The explosive claims from Miss Bailey come as Parliament continues to be rocked by a string of sex abuse and harassment claims over the past fortnight.
  
The scandal emerged last month after it was revealed female staff in Westminster were naming and shaming sex pest MPs on a secret WhatsApp group.
Cabinet members are believed to be among a list of politicians branded 'not safe' in taxis and lifts or 'very handsy' by aides and researchers.
While the 'usual suspects' are said to be well-known by those in Westminster, the list was recently drawn up to bring new recruits up to scratch on 'younger names'.
Female aides, belonging to the WhatsApp group then compiled a 'dirty dossier' that included 40 names, encompassing all levels of the Tory party.
It featured six Cabinet-level ministers and 12 lower-ranking ministers.
Some 10 former ministers, including a handful who served in the highest ranks of government, were also on the roll call.
But while a number of the MPs are alleged to have acted inappropriately, around 15 of the claims relate to consensual relationships or personal sexual preferences - without any apparent misconduct.
Both Labour and the Tories have been rocked by the slew of allegations with some MPs resigning or sacked as a result.
