GuardianOCT 12 2024
A British politician has been suspended from the ruling Labour Party after CCTV footage appeared to show him punch a man to the ground over the weekend.The footage, first obtained by the Daily Mail, appeared to show Mike Amesbury — the MP for Runcorn and Helsby in Cheshire — strike a man in the head, before swinging six more times while the man lay on the ground. It took place in the town of Frodsham in the early hours of Saturday.
The footage, first obtained by the Daily Mail, appeared to show Mike Amesbury — the MP for Runcorn and Helsby in Cheshire — strike a man in the head, before swinging six more times while the man lay on the ground. It took place in the town of Frodsham in the early hours of Saturday.However, that statement came after other footage had been circulating on social media following the incident in which Amesbury could be seen pointing to the man as he lay on the ground, stating: "You won't threaten the MP ever again, will you?"
Amesbury pre-empted the video release, publishing a statement on Saturday saying he had been "involved in an incident that took place after I felt threatened on the street." He added that he had reported himself to the police and was cooperating with enquiries.Prior to the video's release, the Labour Party had stated that it was aware of the incident, while Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson had called it "a matter for the police" when speaking on Sky News.
