She isn’t a Labour MP anymore.
There's nothing to point the finger at at any party over this Selby. She was charged and immediately had the whip suspended. If the Labour party had defender her and kept her as an MP, then YES< there would have been justifiable criticisism to be amde. But it didn't do that.So I'm not sure what point you and others are making here. Do you expect every organisation to be responsible for the behaviour of every member?
If he defends her now she has been found guilty I'm sure it would be a problem.

It was controversial that she was "selected" as the candidate in the constituency that she was in the first place. Very weird that she was allowed to be a councillor in Islington and an MP in Leicester (though she did in the end resign the former after forgetting to declare the income).

I don't know much about her.

Like you I can't see how she could act as councillor in Islington and MP in Leicester. And if Corbyn vouched for her good standing in court, that emphasises everything about the man's judgement.
All MP's who behave in this manner should be sacked - they are not fit to represent their consituents.So can someone point me to the thread we had about about proven sex pest Rob Roberts and nothing being done about it - I can't seem to find it?https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-57834541

I do not condone what she has done, is she guilty if anything else? Found this, but no further action appears to have been taken.''In February 2021, Webbe apologised after an investigation by the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards found that she had broken the Code of Conduct for MPs by her late registration of remuneration received for her role as a councillor in Islington. The Commissioner also noted the late registration of a payment received from a business.[23] Also in 2021, Webbe stated that "the rich must be abolished," a remark that drew criticism in view of her £81,000 a year MP's salary.[24][25][26]''https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claudia_Webbe
when Corbyn was Labour leader is this the young "black woman" with longish hair who often sat next to him on his right ?
