Tony argued: “She won’t be spoken to by police about what she said because it’s under the guise of comedy.
“Maybe if I’d put ‘this is just a joke’ I wouldn’t have had people on my doorstep.”
The pro-Brexit dad of two — who served in the Falklands and Northern Ireland — added: “I felt intimidated. I feel like it was an assault on my civil liberties.” He tweeted after reading of a general’s claim that a Jeremy Corbyn government could face an Army mutiny.
But he said the cops compared his post with threats of violence against MPs — raising the neo-Nazi murder of Labour MP Jo Cox before the 2016 Brexit referendum.

Nigel Farage fears being attacked following Jo Brand’s acid joke and says his security bill will have to increase
Really? People are being stabbed to death in our City and all the cops can do is challenge a Twitter joke? Did t the perpetrator ever mention throwing Acid or murdering a politician? No he didn't, I would have taken what he said as a joke for getting the Conservative politicians' under order for their childish behaviour. Are these law makers all stupid and or on drugs? It beggars belief that people are getting murdered and, according to the Mayor of London, 'we should expect that in a City' but make a tasteless joke and you're career is over and you could end up in the pokey.

See what others are saying about Soros and who he is in the comments section below. FOX News reports the 86-year-old financier and manager of a global network of nonprofits will be forced by BSG Resources’ lawsuit to answer for manipulating the politics and economics of Guinea for his own benefit Despite Soros’ often contentious dealings and reputation as a pompous busybody, the filing in New York Federal Court has thus far largely escaped the spotlight. Soros, who controls a web of international nonprofits in addition to his vast financial empire, used his sway with the government of Guinea to freeze Israeli company BSG Resources out of the West African nation’s lucrative iron ore mini...
