Sports Direct Boss Refuses To Face MPs

Sports Direct boss Mike Ashley has refused to face MPs in Parliament over staff working conditions despite a formal summons. The Commons Business, Innovation and Skills committee wants to quiz Mr Ashley over the treatment of workers at the sportswear giant and have said he could be in contempt of Parliament if he fails to attend. However, he has told Sky News he intends to challenge the formal order to appear before MPs which he slammed as an "abuse of the Parliamentary process".
