A former aide to a Labour MP has been spared jail after downloading more than 500 indecent images of children.
Conor McGrath, 29, worked for MP Kevin Bonavia and was a borough councillor in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, between 2023 and 2025.
Conor McGrath, aged 29, of Biggleswade, appeared at Stevenage Magistrates’ Court today (Wednesday 25 March), charged with:
One count of taking/making indecent category A images of a child.
One count of taking/making indecent category B images of a child.
One count of taking/making indecent category C images of a child.
The court heard that between 7 June 2024 and 13 March 2025, McGrath had made 77 indecent images of children of the most serious, category A level, 101 indecent images of a category B level and 329 indecent images graded as a category C Level.
McGrath spoke to confirm his name and address, before pleading guilty to all charges.
This follows a complex 10-month investigation by specialist officers within the Child Online Safeguarding Team (COST), who are based within Hertfordshire Constabulary’s Public Protection Command.
Detective Constable Tom Campbell said: “This case highlights the Child Online Safeguarding Team’s ongoing commitment to protecting children and bringing offenders to justice.
“The possession of indecent images of children is not a victimless crime; each image represents the abuse of a child.
“We will continue to work tirelessly to identify and target those involved in such offences and ensure that they are held accountable.”
McGrath was bailed ahead of appearing at St Albans Crown Court on Friday 17 April for sentencing.
Not a Good Friday for the BBC – their far left corrupt PM has been proved a lying imbecile ( one or both) and even worse – the strait of Hormuz has been opened following a cease fire in Lebanon …..

What a posing plank he really is. He just has to go, he’s a national embarrassment.
I don’t think I can remember a more haplass PM throughout the history of this Country.
Just go!
Planker is a very good description…

Sending in the HMS Dragon to open the Strait of Hormuz!
WHORE MUZ!
We have a fleet of rubber dinghies which cannot be stopped. Send them with an RNLI escort.
Starmer’s masterplan: “We will lead a multinational mission to open the Strait of Hormuz.”
Iran phoned up Der Starmer and said who is, WE, white man?

Hey Starmer, Iran is kicking off and attacking other countries, can you give us a hand?
Starmer….”Oh no it’s nothing to do with us, we’re keeping out of it….”
Hey Starmer Iran is showing signs of agreeing to peace…..
ok everyone, don’t panic, we’ll go and open the Straights of Hormuz… I think we have a ship and if not my mate in France might lend us one…..
But it’s already opened Mr Starmer…..
Why did no one tell me! I bet it’s the same people who didn’t tell me about Mandelson!
German bigwig….. “A strong Germany is a precondition for a strong Europe…..”

Now let me think….. where have I heard that sentiment from Germany before?
As an aside, re strong Europe, I often take a stroll around the block of streets where I live, a distance of around half a mile…. For my amusement last time I did the walk I totted up a count of parked car makers marques.
I can tell you that out of around a couple of hundred parked cars there was not one UK marque. The vast majority were German, followed by France and then Japan.

How odd!
