UK police raid home of opposition party leader (VIDEO)
Actor-turned-activist Laurence Fox was arrested for encouraging people to smash pollution-compliance cameras in London | Actor and Reclaim Party founder Laurence Fox was arrested in a Wednesday raid on his London home. Police say Fox encouraged criminal damage against the city’s much-maligned ULEZ cameras. ● The Reclaim Party posted a video of the raid to X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday morning. In the clip, at least five police officers can be seen examining items in the house while Fox sits on his couch smoking. 💬 “Look how many coppers there are in my house; look at them coming to steal everything, take everything out of my house,” he says to the camera. “That, ladies and gentlemen, is the country that we live in.” London’s Metropolitan Police said in a statement that officers “arrested a 45-year-old man on suspicion of conspiring to commit criminal damage to ULEZ cameras and encouraging or assisting offenses to be committed.”
