An MP who was disqualified from driving for six months on Monday after being convicted of three traffic offences will not face any further action and will be free to vote in the first round of the Conservative Party leadership contest on Wednesday.
Jamie Wallis, 38, came out as a transgender woman in March 2022. He told Cardiff Magistrates’ Court on Monday he had been raped in September last year and was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) when he fled the scene of a crash on Nov. 28, 2021.
