Lord Walney condemned the actions of certain far-left groups
Lord Walney has hit out at Britain for not "cracking down on far-left groups" and said that the political extremists are "stepping into criminality."
This comes after activists from Youth Demand painted Labour headquarters red, claiming the party has "blood on their hands".
Speaking about the incident on GB News, former Labour MP Lord Walney said: "The level of criminal destruction is depressing. And I think we have to be careful as broadcasters, as politicians, as commentators, not to end up amplifying what is on.
"On one level, pretty basic criminal damage. And I think there is a risk that we can talk about this in excited tones and say they're going to strike next and end up having GB News and other channel channels as essentially a microphone for this far-left group."
He added: "The move of what is essentially an environmental group into campaigning for Palestine shows firstly the level of interchange on the far left.
