Labour MP Mike Amesbury has pleaded guilty to assault by beating after striking Paul Fellows, 45, during a late-night altercation in Frodsham, Cheshire.
The incident, which occurred on Main Street in the early hours of October 26, 2024, was caught on video and shared widely on social media.
Following the altercation, Amesbury, 55, was suspended by the Labour Party, which also withdrew the party whip in late October. He was formally charged on October 29 after prosecutors reviewed evidence of the assault.
Further developments in the case are awaited.
