MP Mike Amesbury admits Frodsham street assault

MP Mike Amesbury has admitted assault by beating after a video emerged showing him punching a man to the ground in his Cheshire constituency.

Amesbury, who represents Runcorn and Helsby, pleaded guilty to assaulting the 45-year-old at Chester Magistrates’ Court.

He had been suspended from the Labour Party after the footage appeared of the fracas, which occurred in Frodsham, Cheshire, at 02:45 BST on 26 October last year.

The video, which did not show the lead up to the altercation, recorded Amesbury shouting: “You won’t threaten the MP ever again, will you?”
