– UK Labour Party Councillor Filmed Calling For Far-Right Rioters’ Throats To Be Cut Is Charged:
A (now former) Labour councillor who was filmed telling a crowd in London on Wednesday that far-Right rioters are “disgusting” and should have their throats cut has been charged with encouraging violent disorder.
Ricky Jones, 57, was arrested on Thursday and is expected to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court this afternoon.
Jaswant Narwal, Chief Crown Prosecutor for north London, said:
“Jones was filmed addressing a crowd in Walthamstow on Wednesday August 7th during which he appeared to make remarks and a gesture to encourage others to act violently towards far-Right protesters.”
The Telegraph has more.
Ricky Jones, a councillor for Princes, in Dartford, was seen on video footage telling anti-racism protesters in Walthamstow, north-east London: “We need to cut all their throats.”
…
The Metropolitan Police confirmed his arrest on suspicion of encouraging murder Thursday in a post on X, formerly Twitter, which included the original footage of Mr. Jones addressing protesters.
The post said that a man aged in his 50s had been arrested at an address in south east London and “was held on suspicion of encouraging murder and for an offence under the Public Order Act.”
