MP Dan Carden made a moving speech to the House of Commons in July, detailing his personal battle with alcoholism.

Speaking to 5 Live鈥檚 Naga Munchetty he said, before becoming sober three years ago, he had been under the influence of alcohol while at work as an MP.

鈥淲estminster, like many workplaces, is a very easy place to hide if you鈥檙e an alcoholic,鈥� he said.

Dan is now campaigning for an independent review of alcohol harm and is setting up the first regular recovery support group for anybody struggling with alcohol within the House of Commons.
