How will ‘sleazeball’ Starmer avoid a Runcorn by-election?

Monday blog

Give Starmer’s current ‘approval’ ratings (see chart below), I suspect he will be rather interested in protecting the (IMHO) cowardly thug, Labour MP Mike Amesbury, in order to avoid a by-election which might see Reform taking the seat despite a previous 15,000+ Labour majority:

But how will Starmer protect the Runcorn Rumbler (Mike Amesbury) while trying to give the impression that Amesbury is being punished for assaulting a constituent because (as Multi-Tier Keir keeps telling us) “nobody is above the law”?

The conditions required to give voters the opportunity to recall an MP are quite clearly stated on the House of Commons website:

MPs can be recalled under three circumstances:

  • Conviction in the UK of any offence and sentenced or ordered to be imprisoned or detained, after all appeals have been exhausted. Note – a sentence over 12 months in jail automatically disqualifies someone from being an MP;
  • Suspension from the House following report and recommended sanction from the Committee on Standards for a specified period (at least 10 sitting days, or at least 14 days if sitting days are not specified);
  • Convicted of an offence under section 10 of the Parliamentary Standards Act 2009 (making false or misleading Parliamentary allowances claims). Note – the sentence does not have to be custodial for this condition.

If one of the conditions is met the Speaker of the House must notify the local returning officer. They are known as a petition officer when dealing with a recall petition.

As you’ll see this gives Multi-Tier former law officer Keir Starmer plenty of ways to keep hold of the (IMHO) repulsive, violent hypocrite Amesbury. For example:

  • Amesbury could just be given an 11-month prison sentence or he could be given a suspended sentence. Then he could continue as an MP
  • The totally non-partisan Speaker could decide to not suspend Amebury by claiming that a suspended prison sentence was “sufficient punishment” or some such similar nonsense
  • Amesbury could, as I suggested in my weekend blog, ‘do a Huw Edwards’ and check himself into some sort of rehab for a few days claiming “mental health issues”
  • The police could do their usual trick, when faced with a politically-sensitive issue, of spending months suposedly ‘investigating’ Amesbury’s attack on his constituent and then the Crown Prosecution Service could spend several months more sitting on the case deciding whether it would be in the public interest to prosecute

There are probably a few more variations that a (IMHO) sleazy, slimey solicitor like Starmer could think of. So anyone expecting Amesbury to be investigated and prosecuted with the impressive alacrity Starmer demonstrated against the alleged “right-wing thugs” (who dared question Starmer’s race-replacement, open-borders immigration free-for-all or post hurty things on the Internet) are likely to be profoundly disappointed.

    It is probably too much to expect Amesbury to do the decent thing and resign.

    And then he’ll have to come up another ploy to keep Dawn Butler in her seat! I think she’s already been reported for a hate crime. However I’m expecting him to just pretend it never happened.
