George Galloway 'told me to do chores', former aide claims

George Galloway asked his former parliamentary aide to buy him underwear and arrange his wedding party, she says
Aisha Ali-Khan reported the former Bradford West MP to the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) earlier this year.
She told the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Victoria Derbyshire programme she agreed to the tasks as she was "simply overwhelmed" and he was "not a man you can say no to easily".
He said there was "not a word of truth in these malicious allegations".
Ipsa confirmed it had received a complaint against Mr Galloway, who is bidding to become the next London mayor, which it handed to the police in May.
The Metropolitan Police said the matter was being assessed - it is making inquiries but there is no active investigation at present.
