Jason Arday’s family said the “public cruelty” he faced was “too much for any man to bear” as thousands gathered at a vigil in his memory in Trafalgar Square on Monday.
The vigil concluded with words from Professor Arday’s family, read by Labour MP for Clapham & Brixton Hill Bell Ribeiro Addy, reflecting on the “incredibly painful time” the family had gone through over “the past 72 hours”.
