MPs have voted to suspend Margaret Ferrier from the Commons for 30 days for breaching Covid lockdown rules.

Ferrier has already been ordered to complete a 270-hour community payback order by a court after admitting culpably and recklessly exposing the public "to the risk of infection, illness and death".
