A TORY MP says he is mortified after he was targeted in a honeytrap.
William Wragg sent naked snaps of himself to a user on dating app Grindr then was manipulated into handing over colleagues’ phone numbers.

Mr Wragg, who is gay, told The Times: “They had compromising things on me.
“They wouldn’t leave me alone. They’d ask for people.
“I gave them some numbers, not all. I told him to stop.”
Other MPs, political staff and a journalist have since been sent explicit messages by a “Charlie or Abi” in a bid to entrap them.
Mr Wragg added: “I’m mortified. I’m so sorry my weakness has caused others hurt.”
Leicestershire Police are probing the scam, which began last month.
