A shocking video has surfaced showing a Labour MP engaging in physical violence towards a man on the streets.
The footage captures Mike Amesbury, the MP representing Runcorn and Helsby, striking the man multiple times after knocking him to the ground.
In the video, Amesbury can be heard shouting at the man, asserting his dominance in a heated moment.
Following the incident, Amesbury released a statement explaining that he felt threatened and took action to defend himself. He promptly reported the incident to Cheshire police for further investigation.
The Labour party acknowledged the incident and confirmed that Amesbury had proactively reached out to law enforcement to provide his account of what transpired.
As authorities look into the matter, there is uncertainty about whether disciplinary action will be taken against Amesbury while investigations are ongoing.
