Anger over a Conservative MP's decision to block a bill to make "upskirting" a criminal offence in the UK today manifested itself in an unusual way in the House of Commons with some of its staff decorating his office with women's pants.
Sir Christopher Chope, who faced criticism, including from Prime Minister Theresa May for blocking the law last week under which someone secretly taking a photo up a woman's skirt in the country could have faced up to two years in prison.
The entrance to the 71-year-old MP's Commons office was been decorated with women's pants in an apparent protest by Commons staff against his actions, the BBC reported.
Pink, black and white knickers were found hung across the door to Sir Chope's parliamentary office on Monday morning. Several suspenders were also placed on the floor outside his door, Sky News reported.
His constituency office was also targeted over the weekend, with a line of three pairs of pants hung across the front painted with the message: "No one should photo my pants unless I want them to."
