Jared O’Mara will find prison “incredibly difficult” - but his former chief of staff and co-defendant thinks the jailed ex-MP “genuinely believes he did nothing wrong”.
The former Sheffield Hallam MP is beginning a four-year prison term this week, following one of the most chaotic episodes in modern politics - which saw him submitting fake invoices for disability assistance services in order to feed his “galloping” cocaine habit.
Gareth Arnold infamously resigned as O’Mara’s chief of staff by hijacking his Twitter account to brand the Sheffield Hallam MP “the most disgustingly morally bankrupt person I have ever had the displeasure of working with."
