Claudia Webbe: MP convicted of harassment gets suspended sentence

I dont think she has to step down as an MP , that is up to her constituent's.

I believe that the Labour Whip was removed some time ago and I read that a vote in Parliament will decide her future.

Will this lead to another by election?

Claudia Webbe: MP convicted of harassment gets suspended sentence

Published16 minutes ago

An MP who made threatening phone calls to a woman because she was jealous of her relationship with her partner has been given a suspended sentence.
Claudia Webbe, a former Labour MP for Leicester East who is now independent, was convicted of one charge of harassment last month.
Westminster Magistrates' Court heard she made several calls over two years and threatened the woman with acid.
Webbe was handed a 10-week sentence, suspended for two years, on Thursday.
