One of Britain’s prominent Sikh politicians, Parmjit Singh Dhanda, has told a probe panel inquiring into racism during elections that a pig’s severed head was left outside his home.

The former Labour MP made the revelation to an all-party inquiry into electoral conduct in the UK, which
is recording racist abuse suffered during election campaigns in the country.

Dhanda’s children found the pig’s head on the front drive while they were playing outside, shortly after the 2010 general election in which the 41-year-old lost his Gloucester seat.
