Officials to probe MPs behaviour at Westminster’s booziest bar known as ‘the man cave’ where sign threatens punters not to reveal its secrets
The plaque, which hangs in Parliament's Sports and Social Club, reads 'what happens here, stays here! Violators will be shot - survivors will be shot again'
COMMONS officials will probe the behaviour of MPs and staff in one of the building’s booziest bars after a sign emerged that threatens punters not to reveal its secrets.
The plate hanging on one of the walls describes the Sports and Social Club as “the man cave” and warns: “What happens here stays here! Violators will be shot - survivors will be shot again.”
The sign - which was still hanging in the bar on Monday - has been graffitied by someone who scrawled: “It’s sexist - it’s 2017.”
Challenged on the sexist sign, Commons Leader Andrea Leadsom pledged that officials would leave no part of Parliament unturned in their investigation into sexual harassment in the Palace.
She said: “There should be no place on the estate where people can be abused or their allegations not taken seriously.”
Commons Speaker John Bercow told MPs there was “a need for change” in the culture at Westminster.
He said: “Let me make it clear: there must be zero tolerance of sexual harassment or bullying here at Westminster or elsewhere: whether that involves members or their staff or parliamentary staff or those working on or visiting the estate.”
