Louise Haigh admits pleading guilty to 2014 criminal offence

The transport secretary says she admitted to a criminal offence relating to a police investigation.

If her position that this was a genuine mistake, is true it would never have been referred for prosecution and she should certainly not have pleaded guilty.

In a statement, Haigh said she told police she had lost her phone during a mugging on a night out in 2013 but later found it had not been taken.
She said it was a "genuine mistake" but had been advised by a lawyer "not to comment" during a police interview. The police then referred the case to the Crown Prosecution Service, she said.

It sounds more like she decided to keep the phone having reported it stolen. Lying to the police.

"Under the advice of my solicitor I pleaded guilty - despite the fact this was a genuine mistake from which I did not make any gain. The magistrates accepted all of these arguments and gave me the lowest possible outcome - a discharge - available.”

No lawyer would advise a client to plead guilty to an offence they had not committed and a conditional discharge is not the lowest possible outcome.

Cool.

MP admits pleading guilty. So guilty a second time of a spent conviction.

I’m not sure about the mobile phone, the hair is quite offensive.

If I saw her on tv sitting next to Angela Rayner, I’d be adjusting the TV settings

it’s a “he said, she said”, that’s it.

No amount of conjecture will make the slightest difference

Is the boatyard man starting another story about a woman who is not a Tory?

Who could have seen that coming?

He'll get his Angela Raynor moment....one day.

She's gone. No better than one of those scooter riding phone snatchers. Apparently, she says she told Starmer she was a thief when he first appointed her to the shadow cabinet. Wow.

Transport Secretary Louise Haigh quits over phone admission

Haigh says she will support Labour 'from outside government' after handing in her resignation.

Just another low level Labour criminal. I suppose some on here will now say "no story, move on" and offer up some Tory equivalence but that’s not really the point, is it?

 

[Murdochcat]

Ha ha ha

 

[noseall]

Tory equivalence

That would be trying to cover it up, whitewash or change the rules so that it's ok.

 

[noseall]

Ho ho ho.

Certainly seem to be plenty to choose from. Surely the better position would be to say I was young and made a silly mistake which I regret.

Instead she fronts up an obvious lie. “I wasn’t really guilty, but my lawyer told me to say I was”.

He is bound by confidentiality, so can’t defend himself.

The point is the PM is showing a near zero tolerance for people who f**k around with him. She was already on one strike with ferry comments. Just remember the shameless and brazen actions of so many millionaire toreys and their supporters to give this context.

Doubtless fart-age will be assessing the prospects of a recall petition.
