A Labour councillor who called for protesters’ throats to be cut has been cleared of encouraging violent disorder – prompting claims of ‘two-tier justice’.
Ricky Jones made the inflammatory comments at a counter-demonstration in north London in response to anti-migrant rallies sparked by the Southport stabbings.
In a video from the event in Walthamstow on August 7, 2024, Jones is seen telling cheering supporters: ‘They are disgusting Nazi fascists. We need to cut all their throats and get rid of them all.’
