[MP Mike Amesbury has been expelled
from the Labour Party after pleading guilty
to assault by beating after punching
a man in Cheshire.
The Runcorn and Helsby MP appeared
at Chester Magistrates' Court on
Thursday morning accused of
attacking 45-year-old Paul Fellows
in Main Street, Frodsham, Cheshire, in October.
CCTV footage showed Amesbury,
who has been an MP since 2017,
punching Mr Fellows on the ground.]

Reform has been campaigning in his constituency ever since the punch landed. Let's see what happens...
there will be a vote to oust him which will throw him out of parliament. Byelections throw up all sorts of interesting choices

A 10 week custodial isn't enough to throw him out as an MP.
He should go if he had any decency.
However if a complaint is upheld then a recall put in place.
That's the only way he could be forced to stand down or seek re- election in a by-election.
It is needed in my view for a system where for crimes particularly violent ones at least.
MPs can be automatically dismissed as MPs.
Seems a bit harsh to be honest.
He beat the crap out of a constituent he was supposed to be representing, i don't think it's harsh at all and it will more than likely be an open prison

The Labour Party
want a Bi-Election, reported on LBC
Of course they can not,
while he is still standing

Yes he has gone to one into Liverpool Prison
Still an MP, dealing with locals.

First offence
Early guilty plea
Community service would have sufficed.

Yes, they came 2nd.
Labour Hope Reform UK and Conservatives
split the Vote, then let their already-picked
candidate, win.

Incredible and I'd say wrong to change the original sentence.
However NOT unexpected.
There's other conditions been put in place that he has to comply with too.
How though, he remains an MP in the constituency where he assaulted a CONSTITUENT is really sad to see.

Yes he remains the Independent MP
unless the locals call a recall

Unbelievable, hope the guy he assaulted pursues a civil action and sues him for a hefty sum

Lucky for him he just punched someone to the ground then kept hitting them. If he'd said hurty words he'd be in prison now.
