A Labour Party city mayor's official website was taken down after it was found to contain incorrect information, including a wrong date for her husband's death.

The website for Helen Ogbu, the Labour mayor of Newham, reportedly featured inaccuracies that prompted questions from party officials. The Mail repeatedly contacted Ms. Ogbu and the Labour Party on Friday evening for comment but received no response. By Saturday, the website had been removed.

Details surrounding the erroneous information and the reasons for its removal are still emerging, with the Labour Party yet to issue a formal statement regarding the incident beyond acknowledging the presence of 'incorrect' data on the mayor's site.
