MP: Candy Crush in meeting 'disgraceful'

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

A Tory MP has apologised after being caught playing Candy Crush Saga on his iPad during a meeting in Parliament. Nigel Mills was photographed playing the game by the Sun newspaper during the Work And Pensions Committee on pension reforms. He has since issued an apology saying his behaviour "fell short of what is expected of a Member of Parliament" and it will "not happen again". Labour MP Helen Goodman is a Shadow Minister for Work and Pensions and sat on the committee that proposed MPs could use their phones in the Commons. She said "the whole thing is just disgraceful". This clip is originally from 5 live Drive on December 8 2014.
