Description | A Labour MP has claimed he was attacked and called a "traitor" about delays to Brexit while out talking to his constituents.
Lloyd Russell-Moyle told Sky News that a man lunged for his face and grabbed his glasses after they engaged in a "heated discussion".
The Brighton Kemptown MP said the news crew he was travelling with were approached by the "irate" man and accused of being part of a media conspiracy to stop Brexit.
When Mr Russell-Moyle introduced himself as the local MP, the man called him a "traitor" and said he was trying to stop the will of the people.
The argument soon turned physical and three men had to prise the alleged assailant from the MP. |
