“Incredibly Disturbing” | Labour Councillor Arrested On Suspicion Of Encouraging Murder

The Metropolitan Police arrested a man in his 50s in south-east London on suspicion of encouraging murder after a video emerged of a Labour councillor calling for far-right protesters’ throats to be “cut”.

He had also been arrested for an offence under the Public Order Act following the incident in Kent.

A Labour spokesperson confirmed that Ricky Jones, a borough councillor in Dartford, Kent, has been suspended by the party in relation to the video.

So it's official, we are now living in a dictatorship.

[marymartin-qy]

What about the woman who was ecstatic when she heard what he said? She too should be arrested

[Alex-PWRLFTR]

If that was Tommy Robinson on a microphone at a rally telling people to cut people's throats they'd chuck him in jail and throw away the key.

[DD-zdlw]

Should be 10 years at least in jail for the far left fascist.

[lolalouise]

We are living in an Orwellian nightmare.

[Thespian-wpxq]

I didn't hear anything like that from the "far-right."

[geoffyoung]

He should be jailed under the terrorism act.But I doubt it happening.

[Buddy-ntrd]

This country isn't just in the gutter because of a certain religion, its because of a certain race as well

[Mylostsock]

Based on current methods he should be in jail tomorrow then yeah??

[ChristopherBurkitt-zt]

That woman in the orange top should be ashamed of herself. She is jumping for joy.

[andrewfenton]

He's being charged with inciting violence, not inciting murder.
Yet another example of double standards in policing. He's probably facing a minor sentence, not a long term in prison. What a sick joke.

[margaretlythgoe]

Blame the government for letting them all in our country the world has gone mad

[jimoconnor]

He also made the Hamas terrorists salute

[tinasmith]

If ur Muslim..NO ARREST NO CONVICTIONS

[dianeirvine]

Look at his audience - these are the cause of why this country is going down the pan

[EnglishJohninCostaBlanca-vqeg]

He 💯 tried to promote, encourage and cause harm to people in the most horrific way and deserves 10 years in jail

[LUFC]

If you get jailed for saying things on Facebook then this guy should 100% be jailed

[daleheat]

Starmer labelled everyone far right which is very racist of him!?! Will he answer to any possible charges??

[jeanettemurphy]

And he has the cheek to say ‘god bless you all’ after saying those evil words.
