Quote:
A Tory MP who spoke at a conference alongside "some of Europe's most notorious far-right politicians" has been given a slap on the wrist from the party.
The Conservative Party has issued Daniel Kawczynski with a "formal reprimand" after he attended the National Conservatism conference in Rome alongside Hungary's far-right prime minister Viktor Orban.
A Tory spokesperson said: “Daniel Kawczynski has been formally warned that his attendance at this event was not acceptable, particularly in light of the views of some of those in attendance, which we utterly condemn."
"He is expected to hold himself to higher standards. Daniel has accepted this and apologised.”

and now the same organisation's conference in 2023 is packed with Tories.
