An MP who lied about a speeding offence has said she plans to stay on in Parliament, despite facing a possible jail term. Fiona Onasanya said constituents should "rest assured" she will remain their MP. The Peterborough MP, 35, was convicted of perverting the course of justice at the Old Bailey earlier this month. She has been expelled by Labour, but will only lose her seat in the Commons if she is jailed for more than a year.
