Controversy Surrounding Hugh ‘Andy’ Anderson
He was reported to have said he liked the future PM ‘‘so much that he often asked him to look after his young son”.
Recent Conviction of Hugh ‘Andy’ Anderson
Anderson was convicted of groping two women over their clothing in April and May 2022. During the trial, one victim explained how Anderson had groped her in the early hours of the morning. She said: “At one point, I was getting some drinks and a conversation started with this gentleman. ‘‘I can’t remember how the conversation started, but I couldn’t hear him and he suggested I came closer to him. “I stepped forward to hear him, and then he put his hand around the back of my bum, and then he shoved it up and then he groped me. “He kept saying, ‘f*** me,’ and I stepped back and pretended I couldn’t hear him – and I kept saying sorry.”
Judicial Sentencing and Consequences
The partner of the other victim told how she was left “very distressed”. Anderson, of Oxford, was handed a 26-week suspended prison sentence for each assault at the city’s crown court. He was also placed on the sex offenders register and must pay £3,500.
