MP filmed in heated exchange as assault reported to police

This one doesn't need to go to the Conduct Committee because it's a custodial sentence so it automatically triggers the recall petition unless there's an appeal.
Only one recall petition has ever failed and that was in a Northern Irish seat so I'd be surprised if we don't have a by-election, which'll be closely contested by Labour and Reform.

Shock horror. Ends up getting the same sentence as any one else. 10 weeks suspended.

As expected. Starmer does not want a bye-election

I don't see what it has to do with Starmer? Amesbury has already been kicked out the Labour party and told he won't be allowed back and he is still facing the same basically inevitable recall petition. Suspending his prison sentence doesn't change anything here, it still counts as a prison sentence.

Amesbury not being part of the Labour Party does not mean that he cannot vote as expected. It is politics; MPs get kicked out of the party.
I am not sure whether the recall petition would hold but let’s see.

Labour have a majority of 170-odd. How Amesbury votes is utterly irrelevant.
