Now five female Tory MPs are demanding that Labour suspend him from the party:
@AVMitchell2010 – withdraw your tweet now about Pfizer & rapists – hope @Ed_Miliband suspends you from Labour Party for offensive words.

A disgusting and offensive tweet from Austin Mitchell @AVMitchell2010. What will you do @HarrietHarman? Rollup by election.

Thoroughly offensive tweet about rapists and USA from Labour MP @AVMitchell2010 . I call on @Ed_Miliband to withdraw the @UKLabour whip.
