MP Mike Amesbury has admitted assault by beating after a video emerged exhibiting him punching a person to the bottom in his Cheshire constituency.
Amesbury, who represents Runcorn and Helsby, pleaded responsible to assaulting the 45-year-old at Chester Magistrates’ Courtroom.
He had been suspended from the Labour Celebration after the footage appeared of the fracas, which occurred in Frodsham, Cheshire, at 02:45 BST on 26 October final 12 months.
The video, which didn’t present the lead as much as the altercation, recorded Amesbury shouting: “You will not threaten the MP ever once more, will you?”
Amesbury, who now sits as an impartial MP, gained his seat on the basic election in July with a majority of 14,696.
He had served underneath Labour since 2017 and was a shadow minister between 2018 and 2024.
