'The village idiot is in front of the camera!' Tory MP Andrew Bridgen has been roasted by protesters during a live interview on Newsnight.
A Newsnight interview went awkwardly haywire when a protester savagely heckled a Conservative MP during a live segment.
Islam attempted to move on despite the interruption from protester Steve Bray, saying: ‘The number of MPs that have gone public though alongside you are still in single figures… I understand you’ve got a bit of a distraction on College Green, but I understand that it’s still in single figures.’ As the minister awkwardly continued the interview, the protester suddenly appeared on screen behind Mr Bridgen, holding placards that read: ‘What a crock of s**t,’ and ‘Get your Johnson out of our democracy.’Mr Bridgen branded the protester a ‘village idiot’ Islam later ‘apologised for the language displayed behind you there’ in reference to the expletives seen on Bray’s signs.
