Probably wise.

Once anything comes up even just as an assumption, it doesn't matter what Party an MP is in.
It will be a hounding exercise all through, as was the case with the those prominent in the conservative government previously too.
You do just get virtually tainted and hounded out.
( Unless you're called Priti Patel of course).

This did sound rather unsavoury however so it was right to be investigated.
