'Private parts' photo accusation heard at meeting
A council meeting descended into disorder after accusations were made about a former Conservative candidate sending a "private parts" photo.
Labour Essex county councillor Aidan McGurran brought up allegations about Reform councillor Jaymey McIvor during a full council meeting on 10 January, in which he claimed Mr McIvor "sent an unsolicited picture of [his] private parts" and was "expelled from the Conservative party".
Mr McIvor said he had chosen to quit the party and had joined Reform, while the Conservatives said he had been expelled.
The Reform councillor, who represents Ongar, spoke to the BBC after the meeting and denied any allegations of sending unsolicited explicit pictures of himself.
