Labour MP Sarah Owen has criticised Mark Francois for using an "outdated" ethnic slur in the House of Commons.
Mr Francois, the Conservative MP for Rayleigh and Wickford, referred to Japanese people as "J***" during defence questions in the Commons on Monday, a term which is today widely regarded as an ethnic slur.
