On October 12, he wrote in an article on the Metropolitan Police X account: orum I believe that these three men have information about the last homophobic attack at a meeting of gay, lesbian and bisexual people.
“Will some stupid children take this example of internal terrorism, which I think very dangerous men have made the offer?”
