Vicar calls MP’s position untenable after newly revealed messages show him suggesting she be ‘burned on a bonfire’

A serving Anglican priest has called for Andrew Gwynne to resign after new WhatsApp messages emerged in which the member of parliament suggested she should be “burned on a bonfire”.

She described the chat involving two Labour MPs, as well as several other Labour party members, as “reminiscent of playground bullying and name-calling”.
