Conservative William Wragg MP has admitted sending the personal phone numbers of other parliamentary figures to someone he met on Grindr. William Wragg, the MP for Hazel Grove, in Greater Manchester, and the deputy chairman of the influential of 1922 Committee, told The Times he provided the contact details after sharing intimate pictures of himself with a person he met on the gay dating app. Wragg claimed he was “scared” because the Grindr match had “compromising things on me” and they “wouldn’t leave me alone”. The revelation comes amid reports that at least 12 men in Westminster have been targeted by a “honey trap” scheme, with MPs, staffers and political journalists receiving unsolicited messages – including explicit pictures – from people calling themselves Charlie or Abi.
