Ex-councillor sent to prison for stalking former MP
The Guardian
|January 17, 2026
A former councillor has been jailed for 20 weeks after stalking Penny Mordaunt, which the former cabinet minister said had left her fearing "sexual violence".
Edward Brandt, a professional sailor, had been found guilty of the offence but was acquitted of a more serious charge of stalking involving serious alarm or distress.
The trial was told he had sent at least 17 emails and three phone messages to Mordaunt, as well as turning up at her Portsmouth constituency office out of hours between 11 September 2023 and 12 May 2024.
She said in a statement to police that she "feared sexual violence" because of the "creepy" behaviour.
