He can't afford a KFC, least he'll have a roof over his head now, I guess and the opportunity to turn things round if he wishes

He probably owed more than that. That result is quite evidently the result of a plea bargain, admit to this, avoid an expensive and lengthy trial and we’ll let you walk and not die in prison.

About the size of it and zero deterrent to stop others trying it in future

Could result in another by-election. Let's see.

Peter Bone: Tory MP facing suspension after bullying probe
Parliament's behaviour watchdog has recommended Conservative MP Peter Bone be suspended for six weeks for bullying and sexual misconduct.

It follows a complaint made to the body by a former member of staff, over alleged behaviour which took place over 10 years ago.

The suspension will have to be voted on by the House of Commons to be approved.

It would trigger a recall petition that could potentially lead to a by-election in Mr Bone's Wellingborough seat.

Sunak's the PM and Conservative leader so another problem for him.

Certainly not part of Rishi's chronicle.

Since 2019, there have been more Tory MPs suspended for sexual misconduct than voters convicted of ID fraud...

I think Sunak might disagree.

Quote:
MP who ‘exposed himself to aide and locked him in bathroom’ loses Tory whip

Peter Bone has been stripped of the Conservative whip removed after he was found to have indecently exposed himself to a staff member and trapped him in the bathroom of a hotel room.

Parliament’s complaints watchdog upheld five claims of bullying and one of sexual misconduct against the leading Brexit backer..

A spokeswoman for the Tory chief whip Simon Hart said Mr Bone – who faces a possible by-election in his Wellingborough and Rushden seat – would no longer sit with the party in the Commons.

The recommended six-week suspension for Mr Bone Independent Expert Panel (IEP) would trigger a recall petition if approved by parliament, creating a fresh by-election headache for Rishi Sunak.

The MP was found by the parliamentary complaints watchdog to have “committed many varied acts of bullying and one act of sexual misconduct” against a member of his staff in 2012 and 2013.

Mr Bone, one of the most outspoken pro Brexit Conservative MPs, was found to have engaged in “violence, shouting and swearing, mocking, belittling and humiliating behaviour, and ostracism”.

The standards commissioner’s report also said he had indecently exposed himself to the complainant on an overseas trip, initially in the bathroom of the hotel room they were sharing and then in the bedroom.

Frankly, it's the least of his problems.

Huge swings in the two by-elections last night from the Conservatives to Labour.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...-b2432881.html

Quote:
Polling guru Professor John Curtice said the Conservatives have not faced a slew of such poor by-election results since the run up to the 1997 general election, in which Tony Blair’s Labour won a landslide.

And Sir John warned that without a “dramatic and radical” turnaround, the Conservatives are on course for defeat in the next election, expected in less than a year.
