The former Labour MP Jared O'Mara has been sentenced to four years in prison after abusing his elected position to make fraudulent expense claims to fund his cocaine and alcohol habits.Described by his own barrister as an inadequate individual who could not cope with the strains of public life, O'Mara was convicted of six counts of fraud after trying to claim about 52,000 of taxpayers' money for work that was never done and jobs that did not exist.
