Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Labour MP Mike Amesbury Expelled After Assault Conviction
Caption: Labour MP Mike Amesbury Expelled After Assault Conviction. Mike Amesbury, MP for Runcorn and Helsby, has been expelled from the Labour Party after pleading guilty to assault by beating. The 55-year-old appeared in court on Thursday, charged with attacking 45-year-old Paul Fellows in Cheshire last October. CCTV footage revealed Amesbury repeatedly punching Fellows after knocking him to the ground, with members of the public intervening. The incident, reported to police on October 26, led to Amesbury's suspension from Labour after the footage surfaced. Now formally expelled, he will remain as an independent MP. Amesbury has served in Parliament since 2017, but this conviction raises questions about his political future. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
