Labour MP Chris Bryant has made a shocking revelation about royal family members covering up sexual abuse by a high ranking member of the clergy.

The Labour MP for Rhondda told an emergency debate on sexual abuse in the House of Commons of a shocking case he was told about when he was a young vicar.

A friend and colleague was suicidal after being raped by a senior churchman. Bryant told the House of Commons that “the senior cleric concerned had a great deal of protection from the establishment, including from certain members in the royal family.”

The senior member of the Church of England has since been prosecuted and jailed, said the Labour MP. Chris Bryant went on to plead: “isn’t the one thing that we must learn from all this is that the best way to protect the institution is actually to protect the victims – put our house in order.”
