Stanley Johnson accused of sexual assault by multiple women

Conservative MP Caroline Nokes has accused  Stanley Johnson, of touching her inappropriately at the Conservative Party conference in 2003.

She has said that Johnson had smacked her “on the backside about as hard as he could” at the event in Blackpool.

Johnson says he has “no recollection” of Ms Nokes and the incident.

Other women have come forward with more accusations against Johnson.

 

Ms Nokes, MP for Romsey and Southampton North since 2010, was the Conservative candidate for the seat at the time of the alleged incident.

She said: “I can remember a really prominent man (Mr Johnson) – at the time the Conservative candidate for Teignbridge in Devon – smacking me on the backside about as hard as he could and going, ‘oh, Romsey, you’ve got a lovely seat’.”
