3:03Now PlayingLabour has called for Culture Secretary John Whittingdale to withdraw from press regulation decisions after news of his relationship with a sex worker. Four newspapers knew about the relationship, which ended in 2014, but decided not to publish the story. Shadow culture secretary Maria Eagle said it had left him "vulnerable" to pressure from the press. Mr Whittingdale, who says he had not known the woman was a sex worker, said it had not affected his decisions.
