PIERS CORBYN was arrested today on suspicion of encouraging people to attack MPs’ offices during an anti-vaccine protest.
In a widely shared video, the conspiracy theorist criticises politicians who voted for “plan B” Covid-19 restrictions and appears to encourage a crowd to “hammer to death those scum” who voted for the measures.
“You’ve got to get a list of them … and if your MP is one of them, go to their offices and, well, I would recommend burning them down,” he is heard saying in the video, which was likely filmed during a protest in central London on Wednesday.
