Louise Haigh - the dyed-haired, attention-seeking narcissist (pictured left) - resigned as the Transport Secretary of this current odious Labour government in November, 2024, after she admitted she had been convicted of fraud in 2014. Haigh said she had told police that she had lost her phone in a mugging on a night out in 2013, but later found it had not been taken. After a probe by her then-employer - insurance firm, Aviva - Haigh pleaded guilty to fraud by misrepresentation, and was given a conditional discharge - meaning a sentence given to someone who is guilty of an offence, but where the court decides not to impose a significant punishment. Haigh said: "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 these arguments, and gave me the lowest possible outcome - a discharge - available." Haigh is a former Special Constable - a volunteer police officer with full powers of arrest - and served with the notoriously-corrupt Metropolitan Police in London's Lambeth borough until 2011. She has been M.P. for Sheffield Heeley since 2015, and drew on her experience in the police force when appointed shadow policing minister in 2017. More on this case can be read HERE and HERE.
