‘The far-left is THE greatest threat to our democracy’

MPs warn Britain is being changed forever by unelected activists.

A string of MPs have warned Britain is in the grip of a far-left surge which could severely undermine democracy and free speech.

Andrew Percy lashed out at far-left activists protesting on Britain’s streets, whilst holding signs that call for the ‘murder of Jews’.

The Conservative Party MP said that the far-left is ‘glorifying terrorist actions’, whilst the mainstream media provide ‘barely a word of commentary’.

He added that those ‘marching in support of violence’ were a ‘threat to our democracy’.

In recent months there have been numerous clashes between demonstrators and police at pro-Palestine marches across the country, the most recent of which attracted 250,000 people to the streets of London.

MPs and councillors have increasingly become the targets of intimidation by pro-Palestinian activists, with countless threats and verbal abuse.

Since the Israel-Hamas conflict started on October 7 last year, a greater number of elected officials have reported being subject to intimidation, with almost 40 MPs reporting that they have been targeted.

Speaking to GB News, Mr Percy said: “The far-left is, perhaps at this moment in time, a greater threat, and a more numerous threats to our democracy than other extremist groups.

“This threat isn’t just from their casual support for violent ‘intifada’ and jihad on our streets, it continues into the online space and is seen in direct threats to elected representatives or intimidation of others in positions of authority.”
