Yellow Bear Posted October 29 Report Share Posted October 29 IIRC he is only suspended from the party (Whip removed) not the house. If this is the case he still gets paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

39TDS Posted November 7 Report Share Posted November 7 You would have to build a lot of jails if that deserves a custodial sentence. He most definitely should not be an MP any more though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a sustained attack on an unsuspecting victim, he only stopped his assault when people intervened. I've seen people go to prison for far less, saying that, I've seen people do far worse and never see a day inside.

I think it will give the MP a chance to tell his side of the story, it will also bring the chap knocked downs version of events and if he was following the MP and goading him that will be worth its weight in gold at the trial. What he did was WRONG, but there may well be a lot to come out in the wash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-one can hopefully be allowed on the streets to punch and kick the carp out of another? The point of self defence in any case ceased when the assaulted bloke was on the floor.

oldypigeonpopper Posted November 9 Report Share Posted November 9 (edited) Hello, It seems the man was no threat to this MP from what i have read , If that is correct together with another point i read the MP was drunk then the Court should take this into account and deal with him as i put in my last post, Prison/Fine.Compensation, and last sacked as a Labour MP Edited November 9 by oldypigeonpopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
