Labour candidate Stella Creasy has had her London office vandalised and the words “Labour child bombing liars” graffitied on the pavement outside. The Telegraph has the details.
The former MP for Walthamstow in northeast London, said she would not be intimidated and those responsible “do not belong in the political process”.
The Metropolitan Police is investigating and Ms. Creasy said voters in the constituency would “not be cowed or influenced by violence”.
It is understood that a hammer was used to break the windows and the same individual then scrawled graffiti, reading: “F— your weasel words this is genocide. Labour child bombing Liars. 2001, 2003, 2024.”
Posting pictures of the damage on social media, Ms. Creasy said: “Message to whoever attacked my office last night. You don’t intimidate me and you don’t belong in the political process. Same as those circulating malicious and false leaflets.
“Police already on this to find you – will press for the strongest penalties for such an anti-democratic attack and I know Walthamstow won’t be cowed or influenced by your violence either.”
Scotland Yard confirmed an investigation has been launched into criminal damage caused to a “political candidate’s office in Orford Road, Walthamstow”.
Det. Supt. Dion Brown said: “It is entirely unacceptable for the office of one of London’s prospective parliamentary candidates to be targeted in this way.
