DUP’s Ian Paisley Jr to refer himself to standards watchdog over claims he pushed for post-Brexit trade deal with Sri Lanka after it ‘welcomed his family on undeclared £100,000 all-expenses-paid holidays’

‘Ian Paisley Jr will refer himself to the Westminster watchdog over claims he is discussing a Sri Lanka with a post-Brexit trade deal after enjoying undeclared £100,000 holidays funded by its Government.
The DUP MP and son of its co-founder, whose 10 MPs are keeping Theresa May in power, was allegedly treated to two all-expenses paid trips with his wife and children.
The Paisleys allegedly flew business class, were driven around in a Mercedes or flown in a helicopter and put up in luxury hotels, according to the Daily Telegraph.
