"I wonder if her son Festus is still in the job she got him earning, something like £50k/pa in parliament?"
Perhaps you have confused this scandal-ridden Labour MP with that of another, Kate Osamor, who continued to employ her Haringey councillor son Ishmael as a parliamentary communications officer following his drug conviction.
She finally stepped down as Shadow Secretary of State for International Development in the same week her mother, Martha (Baroness Osamor of Tottenham in the London Borough of Haringey and of Asaba in the Republic of Nigeria), was elevated to the House of Lords.

I think a chuckle doesn't go amiss in these circumstances, Andy.
This lady had a position and an income quite beyond her dreams. She contrived to avoid a speeding conviction (in fact, it would probably not have been a conviction as the speed alleged would qualify for a course or a fixed penalty). So for the sake of a hundred quid she tried to pervert the course of justice by suggesting her brother was driving. She should be an intelligent woman. She was a trained solicitor and an MP (though perhaps the latter is not always concomitant with intelligence). But she obviously had delusions of grandeur, perhaps thinking that such penalties were only for ordinary people, not for the likes of her.
The worrying thing is that to commit such a blatantly deliberate and obvious offence and argue that there was no intention to pervert the course of justice does not reflect well on her legal training. I think Parliament and the legal profession is well rid of her and I reckon we can all have a little chuckle at her demise.

Groan, do you ever wish you hadn't posted:-(
Yes Festus is her brother, sorry Spicey. And it wasn't him anyway. Oh gawd!
But, in my poor defence, here's a bit about the lovely Festus.
