A political activist from Port Talbot has been branded a "parasite" and "a tramp" by a Tory MP after he questioned him about his support for Boris Johnson. Protestor Steve Bray approached Conservative MP Lee Anderson outside Parliament on Wednesday (April 20) to ask him if he would continue to back the Prime Minister after he was fined for his involvement in the Partygate scandal, but found himself on the receiving end of an angry verbal tirade.
Asked by Mr Bray, also known as Stop Brexit Guy, if he would continue to "support a liar," Mr Anderson, who was elected MP for Ashfield in 2019, responded: "At least I've got a job to lose, you haven't got one." You can get the latest political news and analysis from across Wales and beyond here.
Mr Bray - who has campaigned against Brexit and the Conservative government outside Parliament since 2017 - told the politician he did have a job, which was "annoying and holding people like you to account". However, Mr Anderson, who was also accompanied by guests and police officers at the time of the encounter, retorted: "You're nothing but a parasite."
