Labour MP Barry Sheerman says the BBC failed to protect female staff harassed by Alex Belfield.
: "My mental health has been destroyed. I've been suicidal. My confidence in what I do and who I am is eroded, and I feel let down by my employer."
Jurors found Belfield not guilty of stalking Ms Green, Ms Breen, and two other BBC employees - Helen Thomas and Stephanie Hirst. "Each of them [the complainants] suffered a campaign of harassment by email and social media communications. Each of them suffered serious mental health problems arising from Mr Belfield's conduct," he said.
"There was no escape for these complainants from Mr Belfield until Nottinghamshire Police became involved in late 2020 and bail conditions prohibiting contact or references to these persons were imposed."Responding to Mr Sheerman in Parliament, Penny Mordaunt, leader of the Commons, said: "I thank him for raising this point, it's an incredibly serious matter, and I hope that all employers would have that duty of care and look after people.
