Boris Johnson news – live: Whip removed from Ferrier after Covid parliament trip, as one told to self-isolate

An SNP MP has had the whip suspended after travelling to parliament with coronavirus symptoms - and then travelling back home on a train after a positive test result.

Margaret Ferrier has apologised and urged people “not to make the same mistakes”.

Nicola Sturgeon said the MP’s actions were “utterly indefensible”, amid calls for Ferrier to resign.

Meanwhile, the Commons has said one person is in self-isolation following close contact with Ferrier.
