I don't there are legal issues here. As I mentioned previously I think a speech coach to the Leader of the Opposition being there on the day of a speech will qualify as work. She could have done it via conference call, as it appeared she had done previously with him, but I would be surprised if the police would bother trying to decide that.
It's a political issue for him. He is morally responsible because nobody cares what a speech coach does otherwise. She is also unlikely to have been to only person in Labour HQ helping him with that speech as well so I suspect the media have more names to drop.
