It has been suggested that it is Eric Joyce MP. on social media.

Wow...just had a quick read about him on Wiki (not saying it's him) and he's a convicted sex offender.

[Tilly2]

Eric Joyce is a Labour man.

Eric Joyce was a Labour MP and is no longer in politics.

[mushroom25]

no name published of course - but the press have provided sufficient clues to narrow down the field

[ummmm]

I should hope not with his record.

[Mexican18]

It has reported that the MP in question is a Tory,so perhaps it is not Joyce.

[rowanwitch]

Probably not a good idea to post suggestions at the moment

[Gromit]

A Conservative MP first raised the woman's allegation a month ago with Mr Spencer, the Chief Whip, and Jacob Rees-Mogg, the leader of the House of Commons, after speaking to the alleged victim.

And did nothing. Oops.

[drmorgans]

True, possibility of libel (or is it slander on the net), and identification of the alleged victim.

[Gromit]

Libel is written, slander is verbal.

[Gromit]

I have a suspect. Never heard of him.
